An exhibition of Iranian-made products opened on Friday in Turkmenistan's capital city of Ashgabat, ISNA reported.

Some 70 Iranian companies will be showcasing their products during the three-day event.

In July 2012, Iran and Turkmenistan announced that they are determined to boost trade between the two countries, which currently stands at $5 billion per year.

Iran's Foreign Minister Ali-Akbar Salehi met with his Turkmen counterpart Rashid Meredov in Tehran, saying that the two countries plan to raise their bilateral trade volume to $10 billion.

Iran was Turkmenistan's top trading partner in 2010, accounting for 21.7 percent of its total trade value, Turkmenistan State Statistical Committee reported.

According to the head of the Turkmen Chamber of Commerce and Industry Palvan Taganov, 146 Iranian companies are currently carrying out industrial and construction projects in Turkmenistan.
