  • ECO Car Plan
    Draft ECO Car Manufacturing Plan Preface: as a result and due to the increasing need to promote the intra ECO industrial joint investments and as per the negotiations and decisions of the ECO CCI Statutory meeting during the past several years in particular the final Report of the 14th Meeting of Industry, Investment and SME’s Promotion Committee held in Karachi, 14 November 2019 all the member chambers sense the need to address this issue. Hence the subject event highlighted the sıgnifıcance of the Small and Medıum Enterprıses and the very ımportant role that the joınt industrial cooperation and investments can play ın boostıng the ıntra ECO trade and ınvestment . In that same meeting the participants called for the joınt productıon of goods among the ECO member states namely a car whether ın part or as a whole joıntly and ın collaboration of the member countrıes. In this respect it was suggested that a joint venture be formed among the member states in order to facilitate and catalyze the joint production and manufacturing of vehicles namely cars which can also collaborate in the relevant areas such as spare parts production etc. Consequently the opinions and viewpoints of the member chambers will be of great value in this respect in order to further discuss the case during a technical committee meeting which will be held during the next meeting of Industry, Investment and SME’s Promotion Committee. Therefore obviously this proposal presented at the previous meetings is based on actual capabilities of the ECO region as it is also proposed that parts manufacturing for cars be promoted among member states focusing on SME’s production factories and plants to give SME’s another boost in the region.
