Hajjiabad Piarom value chain
Piarom (Maryami) is the Gulf’s premier semi-dry date: flesh attached to dark chocolate-brown skin, moisture below 15%, and restorative fructose–glucose sugars favoured in health-oriented markets.
Industrial sorting by fruit length, count per kg, skin integrity and moisture directly sets export base prices and pack specifications.

Commercial sorting workflow
Intake & moisture control
Lots below 15% moisture suit 18–24 month dry-cool storage without deep freeze.
Geometric & count sort
Separation by length, berries per kg, skin soundness and physiological defects.
Trade grading
Super Select through Postaei and pitted Meng grades set base price and export pack format.
Storage & dispatch
Above-zero cold rooms, industrial scales and Gehkam–Sarchahan terminals feed export pipelines.
Production geography & infrastructure
Hajjiabad county is the exclusive ecological home of industrial Piarom (~2,500–4,000 ha of bearing orchards across Sarchahan, Diragh, Tazraj, Gehkam and upper/lower rural districts). Nakhl Asyab industrial town (50 ha) and Hajjiabad industrial zone anchor processing.

Cold chain & geographical indication
34 active cold-storage and packing units now operate locally, including 2,200–2,250 t plants at Aliabad and the county junction, stabilising September–October farm-gate prices. National registration of Hajjiabad Piarom underpins GI marketing.
Mid-season broker pressure and past cold-storage gaps forced distressed bulk sales; new 2,200 t+ rooms have restored price balance.

Export markets & value leakage
Over 80% of premium Piarom ships to the UAE, Russia, Turkey, the Gulf, the EU and Canada, yet much volume still leaves in plain 5–10 kg cartons for repacking abroad.
Vision sorting, MAP packs and export-grade carton printing at origin are key to recapturing margin for Hajjiabad growers.
Strategic outlook
Completing Nakhl Asyab industrial town, strengthening palm co-ops, export terminals at Gehkam–Sarchahan, deep conversion (liquid sugar, chips) and ISO 22000 uptake will protect the Hajjiabad Piarom GI.
