The Israeli company Daronet Internet Solutions has sold 70 systems worth around US$ 1 million to the chamber of commerce of the district of Teheran. This reported the Voice of Israel on January 14th. .
Daronet vice CFO Yacov Harpaz told Israeli state radio that his company got the order through a representative of the Iranian customer in the Netherlands. The identity of the client became clear, according to Harpaz, after Daronet was asked to convert the content and the systems to Farsi.

While a former employee of the exporting firm, Carmel Chemicals, claims that there was direct trade at least until 2001, when he left the company.
