Among the units that are not functioning, 62% went out of business in the fiscal 2016-17 while 38% closed down in the following year.
About 77% of the inactive units (8,012) stopped operating due to lack of money supply; 16% due to lack of market for their products; 3% due to conflicts among partners; 3% due to problems associated with supply of raw materials; and 1% due to impairment of machinery.
As per the plans of the Ministry of Industries, Mining and Trade, 1,334 industrial units are planned to be revived by the end of the current Iranian year (March 19, 2020).
