In addition to providing all forms of logistic support to develop the commercial and economic relations between the UAE and Tajikistan.”

Al Awadi called on Tajik businessmen to take part in the international exhibitions organized by the Expo Centre Sharjah to promote their products and take advantage of the offered benefits.

The SCCI’s Director-General emphasized the chamber’s keenness on reinforcing the mutual cooperation between business communities in Sharjah and Tajikistan, thanks to the investment opportunities in both sides which can lead to the establishment of robust strategic partnerships.

Al Awadi expressed the hope that joint efforts will be made in the coming period, in order to witness the development of existing relations over the next few years, to reflect the keenness of the institutions working in the two countries to push the economic and investment cooperation to the best levels.
