The second day of the fourth Imam Abu Hanifa exhibition has been accompanied by widespread public interest, with the exhibition space remaining vibrant. In this event, more than 800 stalls have been allocated for domestic products, and several for foreign products. Some visitors consider this exhibition an opportunity for close acquaintance with domestic products and support for the national industry.

Abdul Tawab, a visitor, said about this: "Compared to previous periods, the exhibition has become very excellent in the production section; productions are diverse and most companies are Afghan."

Syed Akram, another visitor, added: "Exhibitions should be held more so that companies increase, and we ask traders to invest in the country."

In the fourth Imam Abu Hanifa exhibition, women traders have also participated. They have displayed handicrafts, homemade food products, jewelry, and Afghan clothing in about 200 stalls. Maryam, a stall holder, said about this: "Our stall has all handicraft products and all are hand-stitched."

Hila, a stall holder, added: "We are happy from the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan that held the exhibition for us."

Stall holders, satisfied with the presence of people, expect this exhibition to pave the way for the growth of trade and greater support for domestic products. Abdul Basir, a stall holder, said about this: "In this exhibition, Alhamdulillah, it is very good for our carpet sector, and this is an opportunity for marketing our products inside and outside the country."

Nazir Ahmad, a stall holder, added: "We have brought our items here and many people have come and choose our products."

The organizers of the exhibition emphasize that the main goal of this exhibition is to support domestic industries and help the sustainable growth of the country's economy. Mohammad Wali Amini, CEO of the Afghanistan Chamber of Commerce and Investment, has this view on this: "About 350 participants from various countries including Iran, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, and India."

This exhibition continues while officials of the Islamic Emirate, on the opening day, had emphasized support for domestic products and efforts to find new markets for Afghanistan's products.
