Iranian saffron in European stores

A subject was announced by some compatriots as a request to prevent the bulk export of saffron abroad, especially to Spain.
In the requests of the people, it was mentioned that, despite the fact that ninety-five percent of the world’s saffron is produced in Iran, unfortunately, this product is sent to all parts of the world, especially in bulk, due to the incompetence of state officials. Spain, which buys this product in bulk and sells it to other countries at many times the price with attractive and attractive packaging, and this has made the whole world know saffron by the name of Spain, which is the main benefit of this A valuable and expensive product goes into their pockets.
On the other hand, it is only these brokers who buy saffron in bulk from farmers at low prices, and export it.
Regarding these issues, Gholamreza Miri, Vice President of the National Saffron Council, said: All saffron in the country is exported to other countries in packages of 0.2 to 1 kg.
Small packages for stores and one kilogram are mainly used for industrial purposes, he added:No Iranian saffron is exported without packaging, and the packages contain trademarks, health markings, brand name, quality and address. The Vice President of the National Saffron Council said about the ways to deal with traders: Hold on, we can stop the brokers and intermediaries, the world saffron production is in the hands of Iran, it is no longer the currency that the price is not in our hands, so we can easily control the price, and future sales at a fixed price Let’s offer that in this case, the hands of speculators will be shortened.
He noted: Many countries, such as Spain, follow the method of selling at a fixed price, and in this way have cut the hands of intermediaries.
