Iran offers scope for boosting RMG exports
Garment exporters body Apparel Export Promotion Council (AEPC) believes there is market for simple but stylish apparel products to tap in Iran following the removal of economic sanctions against the country.
AEPC Chairman Ashok G Rajani who recently led a delegation of the Council to Iran for an exploratory visit said, “The warmth and positive attitude towards India among the members of the trade associations and government representatives augurs well for trade promotion between the two countries. Although the economy and trade is still recovering from the impact of the sanctions, there is market for simple but stylish apparel products, which AEPC plans to tap.”
India's share in Iran's RMG import was 2.5 per cent in 2015, which means there is very real possibility for India to capture the growing Iranian market.
Iran's RMG import from around the world has shown a growth of 43.3 per cent in 2015 which has increased to $825.9 million in 2015 from $ 576.2 million in 2014. “Although it is small market at present, there is scope for growth in the immediate future and we want India to be an important partner in this growth,” said Rajani. The Council has drawn up its export promotion programme for the year 2016-17 with a view to achieve an export performance of $18750 million in the year 2016-17.
The APEC delegation held meetings with the Iran Textile Export Association, Tehran Chamber of Commerce and Tehran Textile Union on how to reduce tariffs and facilitate market access.

伊朗为提振服装出口提供了空间
服装出口商团体——服装出口促进委员会(AEPC)认为,在取消对伊朗的经济制裁后,简单而又时尚的服装产品进入伊朗仍有市场。
服装出口促进委员会主席Ashok G Rajani最近带领了委员会的一个代表团到伊朗进行一次探索性的访问,他说:“贸易协会成员以及政府代表对印度温暖和积极的态度对促进两国间贸易来说是一个吉兆。尽管经济和贸易仍从制裁的影响中恢复,简单而又时尚的服装产品仍有市场,AEPC想要去攫取。”
2015年,印度在伊朗服装进口的份额是2.5%,这意味着很可能印度将占领越来越多的伊朗市场。
2015年,伊朗服装在世界中的进口增长43.3%,从2014年的57620万美元增长至2015年的82590万美元。“尽管当前市场仍然较小,但在不久的将来仍有增长的空间,我们希望印度在这种增长中是一个重要的合作伙伴,” Rajani说。委员会制定了2016-2017年的出口促进计划,着眼于实现2016-2017年度 187.5亿美元的出口额。
APEC代表团与伊朗纺织出口协会,德黑兰商会和德黑兰纺织联盟举行会议讨论如何降低关税以及促进市场准入。
