Four Southern Varieties

One palm, many temperaments.

From the cocoa-dark Mazafati of Bam to the slender, smoky Piarom of Hajiabad — each variety carries the climate it grew up in.

Where the fruit comes from

Six provinces. One palm belt.

Iran’s southern crescent — from Sistan-Baluchestan in the east to Khuzestan in the west — produces nearly all of the world’s premium dates. Our home grove is in Larestan, Fars.

Fars

Larestan · Jahrom · Darab

From Grove to Pantry

How the fruit travels.

We've kept the supply chain short on purpose. Most of our growers we've worked with for years; the rest, for decades.

01

The Grove

Date palms in Bam, Hajiabad and Khuzestan grow on family land. We work directly with the growers — no middlemen.

02

The Harvest

Picked at the right stage — khalal, rotab or tamar — by hand. The rest of the bunch is left to ripen another week.

03

The Grade

Sorted on cool stone tables. Only the unblemished fruit goes into our consumer and gift packs.

04

The Journey

Cold-chained out of Bandar Abbas. Reefer container, sea or air. Delivered with full export documentation.

Wholesale

From a single pallet to a full reefer container.

We supply distributors, importers, confectioners and roasters in multiple countries. Tell us your variety, volume and destination — we send a quote within one working day.

No middlemen. Our grandfather planted the palms; we still walk them every morning.
