E.g. last year the Iranian export totaled $156 million, while the province share made some $117.6 million and import from Armenia was $23.3 million. The nomenclature of Eastern Azerbaijan export to Armenia includes fruit, food oils, clothes, glass crockery and plastic ware, while second hand machinery equipment, scrap metal, cast iron and aluminum are imported.
