Failure of Iranian carpet exporters in world markets
Asghar Sadeghi, an activist in the field of production and export of handmade carpets, said about the problems of Iranian carpet art: “In recent years, the conditions for exporting handmade carpets have worsened day by day, and only sanctions have not been a problem.”
Regarding the reasons for the failure of Iranian carpet exporters in world markets, Sadeghi said: “In previous years, our competitors have been able to produce cheap carpets due to the cheapness of basic supplies, while we have to import silk at a high cost.”
“The cost of Chinese, Pakistani and Indian carpets is lower than Iranian carpets, but they have not yet been able to reach the hands of Iranian weavers in weaving, and if this trend continues, it is possible that competitors will be able to weave in texture,” he said. It is very similar to offering Iranian carpets.
Criticizing the government’s performance in supporting handmade carpets, the exporter of Iranian carpets said: “The government is obliged to support weavers, producers and exporters of carpets in the field of taxes and duties.”
Sadeghi concluded: “If carpet weavers pay their premiums a day later, they will be removed from the list of social security insured, and if they apply again to be covered by insurance, the government will have enough funds to insure new people.” Do not, face.
