Pakistan’s official logistics and freight transportation organization has successfully transported the first locally produced potato consignment to Tajikistan, reported the state-owned media on Wednesday, making a major export opening for the country to the Central Asian region. Pakistan aims to enhance its trade role in the region.
Pakistan’s ambition is driven by the potential for economic growth and increased regional cooperation to deal with its rampant financial concerns.
According to the Associated Press of Pakistan (APP) news agency, the National Logistics Cell (NLC) sent its trucks to the Tajik capital of Dushanbe to deliver the consignment after covering a distance of 1,400 kilometers.
“The trucks of National Logistics Cell completed the journey from Okara and Rahim Yar Khan to Dushanbe in just seven days,” the APP reported. A special ceremony held at Dushanbe Customs Terminal One on the arrival of the inaugural convoy under International Road Transport.”
