In the past few months, many tire branded brands, such as Michelin France and Bridgestone Zapon, have been withdrawn from Iran due to US sanctions. The bulk of the products of these foreign brands was related to heavy-duty radial tires, which put a lot of trouble leaving them, owners of buses and trucks.
After the departure of credible brands, nowadays the importer of tire is also not interested in importing foreign tires, and the non-university decisions, import barriers and currency problems are due to this unwillingness. Similar to many other things, government officials do not care much about the entry of tire market entrants from the market and the lack of external tire in the market, but we all know that in a short time this market shortage will face serious problems.
Recently, the government has ordered tire importer traders to refrain from selling radial tires from 12 to 24, 315 and 385. This order has caused these importers to be confused between the comprehensive trading system, the market headquarters and the comprehensive inventory system, and decide to give it a chance to do so.
Accordingly, a number of importers of buses, buses and tire tires declare that it is impossible to operate in the current situation and pay as much compensation as possible until the customs authorities require them to import the previously registered goods and Currency allocation does not take place properly, there will be no news of external tire on the market.
In addition to the two problems mentioned above, tire importer trades in the Comprehensive Trade System. With the launch of the system, the system of distribution of goods in the country would be under the control of the government and other relevant institutions. In such a situation, there is no longer any quest for the importer and he will try to get out of the market as soon as possible. It should be noted that following the withdrawal of tire importers from this market and transferring the share to domestic manufacturers, we will see similar conditions like the car market and, worse, monopoly and non-competition in the tire market.
On the other hand, it should be noted that domestic production capacity is small and, in the best case, can only account for 30% of the demand for heavy vehicles and 65% of light car needs. We have to wait and see if there will be good decisions in the coming days to fix this problem, or we will see a crisis in the tire market and see the long queues for getting tires.
