TEHRAN, Jan. 25 (Xinhua) -- Iran exported 183 million U.S. dollars of home appliances during the past nine months until Dec. 21, 2017, Financial Tribune reported Thursday.

Iraq, Afghanistan, Sudan, Tajikistan, Turkey and Italy were the main customers of Iranian-made home appliances during the nine-month period, Masoud Kamali Ardakani, an official with the Trade Promotion Organization of Iran, was quoted as saying.

The exported products included evaporative cooler, fridge, gas appliances, sewing machine and washing machine.

Iran's home appliance industry has a turnover of eight billion U.S. dollars and meets 70 percent of domestic demand, Chief of Home Appliances Association Habibollah Ansari said.

"All household appliance parts and accessories, except for compressors used in refrigeration systems, are domestically produced," Ansari said.
