Iran’s Trade Attache Stresses Need to Identify New Markets in India

The commercial attaché of Iran in India emphasized the importance of identifying new markets in India, citing the trade advantages of the two countries. Hossein Bamiri, speaking on Sunday, outlined efforts to expand trade relations with India, stating that during meetings with Indian economic officials, they prioritized facilitating trade to strengthen bilateral commercial ties, IRNA reported.

“Our goal is to create opportunities in untapped trade sectors between the two nations,” he said. Highlighting the importance of exploring new markets in India, Bamiri said efforts have begun to engage with chambers of commerce in southern Indian states, particularly Gujarat. For the first time, a delegation from Iran’s Sistan and Baluchestan Province visited Gujarat, resulting in approximately 30 B2B meetings between Iranian and Indian businesses. He also pointed to the start of trade collaborations in medical equipment and pharmaceuticals, noting that while Iran’s medical equipment exports to India are currently limited, Iran has significant potential to supply hospital beds, operating room equipment, and other medical devices at competitive prices. - Iran Daily
