Lavashak, sour paste & fruit snacks in Tehran County
Greater Tehran is Iran’s largest end-market for sour fruit snacks; plants sit in Abbasabad, Kharazmi and Paytakht (Aliabad) while trading HQs, Mollavi wholesalers and van-sales networks stay in the urban core. Aseptic puree from the northwest keeps lines running year-round.

Mollavi hub, van sales & export
Mollavi loads hundreds of tonnes of bolt leather and pail sour paste daily for nationwide intake and Tehran retail; Kialand and Mahan Mehr Nafis serve chains and hypermarkets formally.
Regional buyers (Iraq, Afghanistan, UAE) and diaspora markets (Germany, Canada, Australia) source through Tehran firms with ISO 22000 and HACCP systems.
Bottlenecks & outlook
IFDA enforcement, fresh-fruit volatility and single-serve demand define four market streams; Tehran’s customs and logistics cluster remains the export control tower.
Pasteurised qarehqorut inside fruit leather and syringe/stand-up packs lifted Tehran brands above traditional bulk trade.
