Iranian saffron, often referred to as the “Red Gold”, is one of the world’s most valuable and sought-after agricultural exports. Known for its unmatched aroma, deep crimson threads, and powerful coloring properties, saffron from Iran dominates global markets. If you are a government buyer, food distributor, HORECA supplier, or humanitarian aid procurement officer, sourcing bulk Iranian saffron can provide unmatched value and quality to your operations.

This ultimate guide covers everything you need to know about importing premium Iranian saffron in bulk — including quality standards, certifications, pricing models, logistics solutions, and future market trends.

Why Iranian Saffron is the Global Benchmark?

Iran produces over 90% of the world’s saffron, thanks to its unique climate, centuries-old cultivation methods, and skilled farmers. Buyers choose Iranian saffron because of:

•    Superior quality grades such as Super Negin, Negin, Sargol, and Pushal.

•    High Crocin content responsible for its coloring strength.

•    Rich aroma and flavor ideal for culinary, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic industries.

•    Wide global recognition as the most authentic source of saffron.

Bulk Supply & Minimum Order Quantities (MOQ)

Tamila Agrifood Company specializes in wholesale bulk saffron supply for both public and private sectors. Whether you require small trial shipments or multi-ton consignments, we provide flexible MOQ options tailored to government tenders, wholesalers, and institutional buyers.

Bulk packaging is available in airtight containers, vacuum-sealed pouches, or customized export packaging designed to maintain freshness and aroma.

Certifications & Quality Assurance

When it comes to international trade, certifications are key. Our saffron complies with:

•    ISO 22000 & HACCP (food safety & traceability)

•    Halal & Kosher certifications for diverse markets

•    Non-GMO & Organic standards upon request

•    Laboratory testing certificates for Crocin, Safranal, and Picrocrocin levels

This guarantees that buyers receive saffron that is both authentic and compliant with international regulations.

Pricing Models for Bulk Saffron

Bulk saffron pricing depends on factors such as grade, packaging, volume, and global demand cycles. Typically:
