16-county matrix, five product families, 25+ plants in Safadasht & Nasirabad and Ghasem–Molavi distribution analysis
Directory of Pars Mino, Vitana, Gorji, Shirin Novin, Dorna and 25+ biscuit, cake, wafer and donut plants across Tehran, Robat Karim, Malard and Pakdasht.
Tehran is Iran’s consumption pole, brand headquarters, tunnel-oven lines and nationwide bulk snack yards. West (Malard & Robat Karim) concentrates biscuits and wafers; south-east (Pakdasht & Rey) on cakes and donuts; the capital orchestrates capillary distribution and Molavi–Mohammadiyeh cash wholesale.
This report covers five product families, a 16-county matrix, 25+ plants and export / private-label dynamics.

Ghasem, Beh Pakhsh and Alborz move biscuits and wafers with 6–12 month shelf life on monthly cycles; oil cakes and donuts rely on weekly covered-fleet runs. Molavi, Mohammadiyeh and Anbar Naft rows set cash pricing for flour snacks.
Plants without owned distribution sell bulk lots to wholesalers for fast cash; Kheirabadi in Varamin feeds the south-east retail network.
Exports to Iraq, Afghanistan, the Gulf and Central Asia remain steady via west Tehran customs and Imam Khomeini airport. Spare capacity in Safadasht and Nasirabad drives private-label baking for chains; flour cost and cocoa imports remain structural pressures.
