“IranPlast provides a platform to evaluate the strength of Iranian companies in the plastics sector and explore viable market opportunities,” Qattan said.
He noted that his visit to the event was aimed at initiating discussions with Iranian firms to explore cooperation potential in oil and petrochemical industry and find investment opportunities in petrochemical as well as plastics and polymer industries.
He emphasized that his company, active in imports and exports of food products, is now seeking to expand its cooperation with Iranian firms.
“We plan to hold talks with Iranian companies throughout the exhibition,” he said, adding, “If the pricing and quality of Iranian polymer and plastic products meet our expectations, we are optimistic about establishing a productive partnership.”
