Shoba Bazar is a mini-motor industrial zone with dozens of shops selling second-hand motor parts such as nuts and bolts to heavy engines, chassis to bearings, wheel drums and springs. Smuggling of auto parts across the Pakistan-Afghanistan border has impacted local manufacturers and the national economy. The Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) estimates that smuggling through Afghan Transit Trade (ATT) results in a loss of billions of rupees annually, with smuggled goods flooding Pakistani markets.
