Iran pistachio export revenue rises to 23m euros in 2022
Iran-Spain Joint Chamber of Commerce put the value of Iran’s pistachio export to Spain at over 23 million euros in 2022.
According to the report, Iran exported 2,068 tons of pistachios worth over 23 million euros to this country in 2022.
The amount registered a 58% rise compared to same period in 2021.
Iran is the largest supplier of pistachios to Spain after the United States.
As the world’s largest producer of pistachio nuts for decades, Iran has seen its production of the delicacy fall over the years due to a combination of factors, most importantly a protracted drought and economic sanctions.
California has traded the title of world’s top pistachio producer with Iran for many years. The most populous US state is home to 99% of US pistachio orchards.
The decade-old pistachio industry in the United States has grown rapidly to a $1.5-billion business, with the Kerman variety – getting its name from a desert city in southeast Iran - being the dominant cultivar.
