KANDAHAR CITY (Pajhwok): Pomegranate growers and fresh fruit traders in southern Kandahar province say exports have been at a standstill due to the closure of Spin Boldak port and they fear the fruit will spoil in orchards.
On the other hand, officials of Kandahar Chamber of Commerce said that the Spin Boldak-Chaman route has been closed for exports, imports and traffic since the last two weeks which has caused economic problems.
Engineer Abdul BaqiBina, deputy head of Kandahar Chamber of Commerce and Industry, told Pajhwok Afghan News that some shipments of pomegranate were exported to Pakistan through Spin Boldak . . .
