KABUL (Pajhwok): A delegation from the Afghanistan Chamber of Commerce and Investment (ACCI) has visited the 26th International Industry and Construction Exhibition in Iran, the chamber said on Friday.

The delegation included members of the ACCI board, the commercial attaché of the Afghan Embassy in Tehran, the deputy head of the Balkh Chamber of Commerce and Investment, and a number of Afghan traders.

The chamber said the delegation visited various exhibition booths, where companies from several countries showcased industrial and construction products, equipment, technologies and capabilities.

During the visit, the Afghan delegation held talks with companies, manufacturers and economic stakeholders on trade and investment opportunities, joint ventures, and the transfer of knowledge and technology to Afghanistan.

The discussions also covered Afghanistan’s potential in construction and infrastructure development, as well as opportunities for joint investment.

The ACCI said participation in such exhibitions could help strengthen ties between Afghanistan’s private sector, Iran and other regional countries and create new opportunities for trade and investment cooperation.

The chamber said it would continue participating in international exhibitions and strengthening relations with regional chambers of commerce and economic institutions to promote Afghanistan’s economic potential, attract investment and expand trade cooperation.
