Speaking to Iran newspaper, Reza Rostami referred to the recent inauguration and launch of 14 infrastructure and equipment projects at Chabahar Port valued at 9,800 billion tomans, carried out in the presence of the Minister of Roads and Urban Development and the Mnanaging Director of the Ports and Maritime Organization (PMO).
Rostami emphasized that increasing cargo loading and unloading, as well as boosting exports and imports through Chabahar, would directly benefit the national economy. He noted that the long-anticipated rail connection between Chabahar Port and the national railway network is now progressing, a move he described as a major step toward unlocking the port’s full economic potential.
Highlighting the port’s strategic location along the North–South Transit Corridor, Rostami described Chabahar as highly attractive for private-sector investment, adding that investment in the port offers favorable and relatively fast returns.
Dual Impact of Strategic Investment
Commenting on the 9.8 billion investments by the PMO and the private sector, Rostami stated that developing Chabahar and other southern ports will also stimulate growth in northern ports—effectively achieving two strategic objectives simultaneously.
He added that when the private sector witnesses tangible government commitment and resource allocation, investor confidence increases significantly. Public–private cooperation, he said, fosters trust among economic stakeholders and creates stronger motivation for expanded investment and accelerated port development.
