تهران

Tehran sits at a dual supply chain: concentrating harvests from southern plains and repackaging high-value aseptic semi-finished goods.

Households and HoReCa now outsource herb prep, onion frying and stock cooking to industrial lines. FX swings and short tomato harvests squeeze Varamin–Pakdasht plants; canning syndicates lobby to prioritise domestic processing. Water and effluent limits push some sites toward aseptic repacking in Rey and Robat Karim.
Anbar Naft and southern Khayyam remain price-discovery hubs for bulk paste and 10–17 kg tins; Shourabad and Kahrizak store 230 kg aseptic drums.
Margins on hydrolysed stocks and stew bases have overtaken bulky traditional cans. Elite, Mahnam and Hani capture more of middle-income urban baskets with authentic Persian flavour profiles.
Pakdasht and Malard lead frozen fried onion and sliced mushroom for fast-food chains; Behrouz Nik and Kambiz are standout exporters in canned paste and pomegranate products.
