A private company in Afghanistan has for the first time exported a consignment of health products to Uzbekistan, officials confirmed.
According to Nazir Ahmad Noor, the head of the manufacturing company, the products to be exported will be done in stages.
Currently the total value of the contract with Uzbekistan is $250,000.
“Our contract is $250,000 and today we have two 40-foot cargo trucks moving there today,” said Nazir Ahmad Noor.
Meanwhile, Chamber of Commerce and Investment (ACCI) officials called on government and the people to support domestically manufactured products.
“Our manufacturing plants must be supported until they become large,” said Khairuddin Mayel, the deputy head of ACCI.
The Ministry of Industry and Commerce (MoIC) officials said that they support industrialists and for this reason they have always tried to provide more investment opportunities in the country.
“The Ministry of Industry provides all facilities to all investors who want to invest in Afghanistan,” said Abdulsalam Javad Akhundzadah, MoIC’s spokesman.
