The mentioned investments will be made in a variety of
projects including zinc, lead, manganese, and copper factories, the
construction, and development of industrial components and parts production
units, development and integration of the existing industrial units in the
area, construction of an alumina refinery, as well as the construction of
container manufacturing units.
Implementation and construction of production units in
Shahid Rajaee Port will make this port a center for value-added production and
a logistics center, which will upgrade the port's level to the third generation
and significantly reduce transportation and storage costs.
Located in Iran’s southern province of Hormozgan, Shahid
Rajaee is the country’s largest and best-equipped container port.
The third phase of the port’s development plan is going to
go operational by the end of the current Iranian calendar year (March 20, 2021)
