The Afghanistan Chamber of Industries and Mines has announced the upcoming fifth Domestic and International Exhibition of Industry and Mining Week. This event will take place in the capital city of Kabul.

The exhibition is planned to last for seven days, from the 10th to the 16th of Cancer in the solar year 1405. Mohammad Rafi Azimi, who serves as the deputy head of the Afghanistan Chamber of Industries and Mines, shared details about the exhibition during a recent press conference.

The primary goals of the exhibition include marketing local products, advancing industrial growth, generating employment, and advancing self-sufficiency. More than 360 booths have been allocated for displaying industrial products at the venue.

Chamber officials have appealed to both local and international investors to engage with the event. They pointed out that Afghanistan possesses the necessary potential to develop into a fully industrialized nation. Participants including traders and citizens are encouraged to attend in order to raise awareness of domestic products and to facilitate greater sales of these goods.
