Iran plans huge garment exports

About 1,500 industrial units and 30,000 employees are involved in Iran’s clothing sector which has a capacity for producing 3,40,000 tons of garments per year.

The country has taken measures aimed at renewing the country’s garment manufacturing industry, in a bid to enter international markets. Exporting apparel products to neighboring countries, including the CIS and, in particular, Azerbaijan, is on the agenda.

Iranian manufacturers have developed plans to export about 30 per cent of their total output.

Public interest in domestic products has dramatically surged over recent months.

Currently, 9,818 industrial units are active in Iran’s textile and apparel industries, constituting 11 per cent of all industrial entities in the country.

These units have created more than 2,90,000 direct jobs, accounting for 13 per cent of all industrial jobs in Iran.

With the aim of limiting imports, boosting domestic production and making the price of Iranian clothing more competitive, the country is now planning to set up a new apparel industrial town. Some 45 hectares of land have been bought for the new apparel industrial park. The hope is that such an apparel industrial park will be highly beneficial as it will lead to transfer of know-how, increase in quality and lowered production costs.
