MAZAR-I-SHARIF (Pajhwok): A new garment factory has been established in northern Balkh province where 150 individuals have been employed and produced thousands meteres of cloth on daily bases.


Haji Baryali Nabizada, the owner of factory, told Pajhwok Afghan News the facility had been made functional over the past one month but was not officially inaugurated. He demanded government support for more production in the factory.


He said 10,000 metres cloth and 1.5 tonnes of thread was produced in 24 hours in the factory with 150 people, including 60 women, provided with work opportunity.


Murtaza, a worker, said he was suffering from unemployment over the past few years. “Often I decided to go to Iran for work, but did not have enough money to do so.”


He was joyful over the establishment of factory in the province where he will work and may not feel the need to go to other country.


The factory owner said he invested 60 million Afghanis and planned to export the product. He demanded government support to increase the production.


The land and electricity issues threatened the production and expansion of the factory and Nabizada demanded help from the government in this regard.


Governor spokesman termed the establishment of garment factory a positive sign for business. He said the provincial government welcomed investment and business in the province.
