What the source reported
Source-reported<p><img src="https://www.globalcement.com/images/news/armenia-map-pin-1500.jpg" /></p><p><strong>Armenia: </strong>Cement was available in only two building supply stores in Yerevan on 30 September 2026, according to Arme News. One of these stores is supplied by Ararat Cement, which partially resumed deliveries on 29 September 2026 after being suspended more than two weeks previously. The owner of another building supply store imports cement from Iran, deliveries of which have reportedly been ‘problematic,’ with hundreds of trucks carrying cement stuck at the border crossing between Iran and Armenia. Other local business owners have blamed Iranian suppliers for the shortage. Armenia’s ambassador to Iran reportedly met recently with Iranian vice president Hamid Pourmohammadi to discuss the ‘obstacles’ to the flow of goods between the two countries and how to ‘overcome’ them.</p>
