(MENAFN) The head of Iran's National Carpet Center, Hamid Kargar, said "Iran exported $89 million of hand-woven carpets during the first four months of the present Iranian calendar year (March 21- July 22, 2017), showing an increase of 3.7 percent in terms of value".
At the beginning of the preceding year the government has restarted its exports of carpet to the U.S. after the removal of nuclear deal sanctions with the six world powers.
The official also added "Before 2010, Iran's carpet exports to the U.S. stood at more than $80 million, accounting for 16 percent of Iran' total carpet exports".
