Savis IQF line, Falah & Darazno cold stores, Eyshi greenhouse and Golestan cold chain
Directory of Baharan Peyman (Savis), Sepid Tejarat Darazno, Falah cold hub, Bahman Gostar and Eyshi greenhouse in Kordkuy — IQF specs, sub-zero capacity and dairy B2B plus northern export lanes.
Golestan ranks third nationally in strawberry output; while Ramian and open-field hubs dominate eastern production, western Kordkuy concentrates IQF tunnels, dual-temperature cold stores and hydroponic supply on the northern transit corridor, rail links and Caspian ports.
Strawberries spoil within 48 hours without rapid cooling; Kordkuy’s IQF cluster absorbs surplus from eastern Golestan and Mazandaran and turns seasonal fruit into 12–18 month industrial inventory.

Feedstock arrives from Ramian, Aliabad and Eyshi greenhouses into the Savis plant; after IQF, product flows to dairy, ice cream and bakery majors (B2B) or retail packs and export via northern customs and ports, backed by Falah and Darazno pallet capacity.
| Chain metric | Kordkuy | Economic impact |
|---|---|---|
| Raw peak | May–June + greenhouse | 40-day cash cycle |
| IQF weight loss | 1–2% | Preserves cargo value |
| Storage | −18°C, 12–18 months | Beyond seasonality |
| B2B | Kale, Pegah, ice cream | Stable annual tonnage |
| Export | Near Incheh Borun | Central Asia & EAEU |
Provincial cold capacity (~59k t vs ~300k t demand), compressed 30–45 day raw-cash cycles and scarce reefer containers for export are the main bottlenecks.
Proximity to Tehran and northern ports, mature Savis IQF lines and added freeze-dry/powder capacity strengthen Kordkuy as a small-fruit processing hub on the southern Caspian.
Pairing firm greenhouse fruit with −35°C IQF and 5,000 t storage is the industrial park’s core competitive edge.
