Iranian food technology imports amount to US $ 280.9 million in 2009
No doubt, the Iranian food technology market becomes ever more important. Exporters of food processing equipment into the Middle East during the past few years made good business in Iran, now being the most important market for major international players with interest in the region.
In 2009, the Iranian food industry imported food processing and food packaging equipment worth US $ 280.9 million. Especially producers of material and technology for baking, beverage production, confectionery, dairy processing, egg processing, fruit and vegetable processing, laboratory equipment, meat processing, noodle processing, packaging and refrigeration note an enormous boost of their sales activities in Iran.
