Mashhad County Fruit Leather & Sour Paste Producers Directory | Iranco
Tous IC, Chahshak, Kalat and Mosalla brokerage — 16-unit matrix from Dish Dish and Tarshin to Parna and Shoorin
B2B guide to Mashhad lavashak and torshak — 16 plants, brokers and exporters; zoning tables, product split and Sarakhs, Dogharun and Gulf lanes.
Mashhad County in Iran’s east lavashak, torshak and sour-fruit processing chain
Mashhad combines transit corridors, massive pilgrimage souvenir demand, and Kashaf Rood–Binalood orchards wired into industrial zones — serving as both a processing base and the largest wholesale clearing house for sour fruit snacks in eastern Iran.
Roughly five percent of Khorasan Razavi plum output is cooked into puree and fruit base in Mashhad plants; nearby printing, PET packaging, dryer engineering and food labs materially cut unit costs.

Mosalla brokerage, market specs and border lanes
Mosalla wholesale market sets the reference for 12.5 kg PET torshak drums and 20 kg metre-leather cartons; brokers clear both Mashhad factories and Tabriz or Lorestan brands across eastern Iran.
Afghanistan buys economy hospitality leather via Dogharun; Turkmenistan and Kazakhstan take pulp leather and labelled cup torshak through Sarakhs; leading Tous plants ship metallised containers to the Gulf and Europe.
Regulatory, climate and competitive horizon
Cost gaps versus unlicensed workshops, spring frost on plum and apricot, summer power and winter gas curbs, and petrochemical film and sugar volatility squeeze margins.
Seasonal aseptic puree, heat-pump drying and date/grape syrup plus organic barberry formulations can reposition Mashhad as a health-led sour-snack export pole in the Middle East.
