“In the post sanctions era and after the implementation of the nuclear deal, foreign investors are much more eager to engage in the projects in Iran’s free economic zones,” Moezzuddin said.

“We have offered foreign investors 90 potential projects all expected to be launched in the country’s free economic zones, he said.
