Q1-3 Exports from Parvizkhan Border Surpass $640 Million

A total of 1.65 million tons of goods worth $645 million were exported from the Parvizkhan border terminal in the western Kermanshah Province during the first nine months of the current Iranian year (March 21-Dec. 21), according to Qasem Matlabi, a local customs official. 
The exports included fruit and vegetable, dairy, cakes and cookies, stone, tile and ceramic, and construction materials, IRNA reported.
Kermanshah in western Iran shares around 371 kilometers of borders with Iraq’s central government as well as the Kurdistan Region. With six official border crossings and markets, the province accounts for almost half of Iran’s annual non-oil exports to Iraq.
Parvizkhan terminal in Qasr-e-Shirin County accounts for around half of Iran’s non-oil annual exports to Iraq. 
Last year (March 2021-22), exports to Iraq from this terminal stood at 2.53 million tons worth $1.02 billion.
