Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox organization The Afghan-German Trading Company (DACOM; German: Deutsche-Afghanische Companie),[1] originally known as the German and Oriental Trade House[2] is a trading company which was established in 1923[3] by an association of German enterprises, which had its office in Kabul.[1]

History

In 1924, Ebner succeeded K. Wagner as chief local representative of DACOM.[2]

In February 1925, DACOM was reported as doing a "fair amount" of business, acting as brokers for silvers for a new currency, and to have placed orders in Germany for wireless sets, machinery, and electrical materials.[2] At this time, Ebner found himself in conflict with the Afghan government which only permitted him to trade with persons selected by the government.[2]

By 1926, the German trading company had become one of the most successful in the country, second only to the Russian enterprises, and later on, it surpassed even them.[4]

On 15 April 1929, during the Afghan civil war of 1928-29, Habibullāh Kalakāni contacted Muhammad Musa Khan Qandahari, a director of DACOM, and 7 other Qandaharis, requesting them to assassinate Amanullah Khan (who was contesting the Afghan throne), promising them a large reward if they did so.[5]

As of 2011, the Afghan-German Trading Company still exists and is operating in Germany.[6]
