Isfahan Bulgur & Cracked-Grain Processing Directory | Iranco
Analytical atlas of pearling, packing, wholesale and bulgur export with 17+ mapped active units
Directory of Isfahan bulgur processors from Kamashcheh to Ji industrial zone — county matrix, standards, wholesale hubs and Iraq/Gulf export lanes.
Geographic layout of the bulgur value chain
Isfahan Province is a core hub for grain processing, sorting, storage and distribution of bulgur and cracked cereals on Iran’s central plateau, linking raw-producing provinces to national consumption through north–south and east–west corridors.
Secondary processing clusters in Borkhar (Kamashcheh), deep refining in Isfahan industrial towns, large silos and mills in Shahin Shahr, and packaging nodes in Najafabad, Khomeini Shahr, Kashan, Golpayegan and Mobarakeh form an integrated supply web.

Processing chain
Pearling & cleaning
Multi-stage pearling, destoning and vibrating sand removal.
Peeling & conditioning
Abrasive hullers (barley) and controlled moisture before milling.
Cracking
Fluted rolls or hammer mills; fines kept below 4% by weight.
Optical sorting
Laser color sorters for export-grade uniformity.
Magnet & sizing
Metal traps and mesh grading for weigh-fill lines.
Packing
400–900 g film, PET jars, 20–50 kg wholesale sacks; moisture <12%.
National Standard 3145 and Codex Stan 152 govern moisture, protein, aflatoxin and granulometry for export lots.
Three-layer value chain
Upstream: Jareh Shahin mill, Roshan Kashan flour plant, Shahdineh Aran and Azin Grain refineries supply clean grain, grits and industrial derivatives.
Midstream: Abshar Sabz, Fardineh, Sobh Khosheh, Tek Chin Daneh and Niloumehr — pearling, sorting and retail packs from Kamashcheh and Mehrgan.
Downstream: Ahmadabad and Abdolrazagh wholesale rows, Alghadir terminal, Asia Trading — bulk sacks and transit export.
Active company database
| Company | Location | Focus | Export |
|---|---|---|---|
| Abshar Sabz Isfahan | Kamashcheh | Wheat & barley bulgur | Active |
| Fardineh Namazi | Kamashcheh | Packed bulgur | Active |
| Sobh Khosheh | Mehrgan, Mobarakeh | 900 g retail packs | Active |
| Azin Grain / Shahdineh Aran | Isfahan Ji | Grits, starch | Export |
| Haniyeh Espadana | Isfahan | Bulgur export | Export |
| Asia Trading (Malekpour) | Isfahan | Bulk bulgur | Wholesale |
Wholesale & distribution
Traditional hubs: Ahmadabad, Valiasr, Shokrshkan; Abdolrazagh and Naqsh-e Jahan spice rows; Jihad axis for high-tonnage flows; Alghadir terminal for southbound staples.
Kamashcheh alone feeds a large share of national cellophane bulgur SKUs; local food-machinery clusters cut customization cost for granulometry.
Export outlook
Targets include Iraq (pilaf bulgur), Gulf states (barley bulgur), Central Asia (corn grits). Strategy shifts toward parboiling lines, oat bulgur and a processing-hub model as local wheat acreage contracts.
