28-county matrix, toast/baguette/GF/tortilla basket and 15-plant database from JI & Sefeh to Kamashcheh and Najafabad
Directory of toast, baguette, diet, gluten-free and tortilla plants in Isfahan — Narin, Orakel, Golshid, Najafabad celiac factory and Kamashcheh cluster.
Isfahan links northern and southern grain flows on Iran’s central plateau; flour subsidy reform clarified full costs and pushed plants toward line efficiency, formulation and waste reduction.
Urbanisation, female employment, QSR and university hubs drive demand for toast, burger buns, stable baguettes and health / gluten-free SKUs; JI and Sejzi industrial zones host oven and packaging machinery makers supporting continuous baking.

Four distribution layers: daily hot (Narin, Orakel), wholesale hubs (central Isfahan markets), micro-distributors (Paravar, Rose Distribution, Huber) and clinical GF.
Tortilla and pita show the fastest HoReCa growth; Kamashcheh’s automatic flatbread line strengthens Isfahan as a thin-bread hub.
30–40 tonnes per day of Kamashcheh dry diet bread move through central Isfahan wholesalers to the province and neighbours.
Shift toward frozen par-bake, sourdough and national GF capacity in Najafabad continues; Kamashcheh’s semi-industrial diet heritage and 13 registered traditional breads remain a durable edge.
