Iran (IMNA) - Every year, the process of registration and evaluation of the top exporters is started a few months before the Day.
One part of this evaluation includes self-declaration and another part includes the statistics regarding the companies' export performance.
Hundreds of export companies from different product and service groups are assessed to select distinguished exporters, and the finalists are announced at the National Export Day ceremony.
At the ceremony, some exemplary exporters are rewarded with Export Honorary Medals, and some exporters are recognized as “excellent”, “national” and “good”.
Promoting the culture of export among the varied strata of people, and honoring local businessmen are among the objectives pursued on this occasion.
The Day is regarded as an opportunity to exchange ideas, identify obstacles on the path of export, and examine solutions in this regard.
In the first half of the current Iranian calendar year (March 21 to September 22), Iran's foreign trade value reached approximately $54.6 billion, as announced by Mohammad Rezvanifar, the head of the Iranian customs office (IRICA).
