me-metals: In 2025, Mobarakeh Steel recorded over 1.1 billion dollars in export revenue, making it the largest non‑oil exporter in Iran.
According to me-metals cited by Steel Vision, Key figures from the year:
- 1.82 million tonnes of physical exports
- 10.89 million tonnes of steel production
- Ranked 43rd among the world's largest steel producers
- Over 1.1 billion dollars in foreign currency earnings
This performance came despite severe energy constraints and international sanctions. It demonstrates what is possible when industrial capability, domestic knowledge, and strategic planning come together.
Export revenue strengthens the national economy. Industrial production secures the supply chain. And local expertise ensures self reliance.
Three pillars support this export leadership:
- Strong production: Record output achieved under sanctions and energy limitations
- Competitive exports: Presence in global markets, strengthening national currency reserves
- Knowledge and self sufficiency: Localization of key technologies, reliance on domestic specialists
This is how a single industrial group contributes to economic resilience at a national scale.
