“The main exported commodities included fruits and vegetables, sulfur, construction materials and salt,” Hamidreza Mohammad-Hosseini was also quoted as saying by IRNA.

Shahid Bahonar is one of the most active ports in southern Iran in terms of both passenger and freight transportation. The port enjoys a strategic position due to its proximity to the Persian Gulf littoral states and the Iranian islands of Qeshm and Kish, according to Financial Tribune.
