Alborz to Set Up Permanent Expo in Moscow

Alborz Province Exports Promotion Company will open a permanent exhibition in Moscow late October based on an agreement reached by an Iranian-Russian consortium headed by Russia’s Elbin Bank and a charity foundation affiliated to State Welfare Organization of Iran. Food, agricultural and industrial products made in Alborz as well as other Iranian provinces will be showcased in an area of 300 square meters in the Russian capital, IRNA reported.

Last month, Elbin Bank signed two agreements with an Iranian delegation from the northwestern province of Ardabil in Moscow. The agreements envision the development of a spa town between Ardabil and Sareyn–Iran’s famous spa hub–and the sale of Ardabil’s handicrafts in Russia.

Alborz is situated 35 km west of Tehran at the foothills of the Alborz mountains. It is Iran’s smallest province in area.
