Kunar, located in eastern Afghanistan along the border with Pakistan, is known for its mountainous terrain, abundant forests, and rivers. Its strategic location provides potential for cross-border trade and investment. The province produces fruits such as pomegranates, citrus, and walnuts, and is also rich in timber and natural resources.
The Kunar Chamber of Commerce and Investment plays a crucial role in connecting local businesses to national and regional markets. It promotes trade infrastructure, supports small enterprises, and advocates for investment in agriculture and transportation. With better connectivity and support, Kunar can become a vibrant trade hub in the eastern region.

Kunar Chamber of Commerce & Investment
The Kunar Chamber of Commerce and Investment was established in 2005 (1384) during the formation of the state-run chamber and later transitioned to the private sector in 2018 (1397). Initially operating in a rented facility, the chamber acquired its own building in 2014 (1393). Since then, it has played a key role in resolving local traders' issues through coordination with the central chamber. The chamber also supported the export of wooden products to other provinces, contributing to revenue generation and job creation for hundreds of underprivileged families.
