Italian companies seem to be very keen to invest on Iran‘s marine industries, says the head of an Iranian company involved in building fiberglass recreational boats and marine gears on the Kish Island.



Two Italian manufacturers of sea light vessels and marine gears participated in the Eighth International Maritime and Offshore Technologies Exhibition held on the Kish Island from October 18 to 21, Hossein Jahangiri told the Islamic Republic News Agency in a recent interview.

We were looking for a technology transfer deal with the Italian companies, said the managing director of Fiber Sanat Darya Kish company.

‘The two Italian companies also believed that the Persian Gulf Island provides them with a good opportunity to manufacture and market their products,’ Jahangiri said.

As no country in Asia represents the two companies, striking deals with the two Italian fiberglass boat and marine gear manufacturers is going to provide Iran with a chance to market the products jointly produced with the help of Italian companies across the region, he said.
