At Ofoq Kourosh, supported by our young, dedicated, and capable team, we remain firmly committed to creating value through the nationwide distribution of goods based on the principle of uniform assortment, uniform pricing, and consistent quality across Iran.
The establishment and growth of Ofoq Kourosh are rooted in over five decades of entrepreneurial experience of the late Iranian entrepreneur Mohammadkarim Fazli. His journey began in 1966 with the creation of the Golrang brand and evolved over five decades through the establishment of major manufacturing companies across detergent, food, cosmetics, and personal care industries. In 2009, with the goal of completing the Golrang Industrial Group’s value chain, he founded Ofoq Kourosh. Following four years of research, planning, and sustained effort, the first “Always Discount” store officially opened on November 30, 2013.
The first development phase (2013–2017) introduced diverse retail models. After opening more than 600 stores nationwide, Ofoq Kourosh adopted the franchise model to enable public participation. Rather than full ownership of all stores, the company provided intellectual property, products, equipment, and management services; creating employment opportunities, fostering entrepreneurship, and accelerating network expansion. The first franchise store was launched in May 2017.
During the second development phase (2018–2021), Ofoq Kourosh opened 2,100 additional stores and became publicly listed on the Iran Stock Exchange under the symbol “OFOQ,” enhancing financial transparency and enabling broader public investment.
The third development phase (2021–2025) marked the realization of Ofoq Kourosh’s leadership vision. With more than 28,000 employees and 5,000 stores operating across Iran—from north to south and east to west—in over 735 cities and 278 villages, the company has established itself as the leader of Iran’s retail industry.
Today, Ofoq Kourosh operates the country’s largest retail distribution fleet, consisting of 1,500 operational vehicles with an average daily mileage exceeding 200,000 kilometers. With 270,000 square meters of warehouse space, a storage capacity of 54,000 tons, daily inbound and outbound handling of up to 15,000 tons, and collaboration with over 700 trusted suppliers, the company serves more than 15 million households nationwide.
Throughout this journey, our unwavering priority has been delivering high-quality services and creating a brighter horizon for our fellow citizens—imbuing the values of respect, loyalty, and responsibility with deeper meaning. With the dedication of the Ofoq Kourosh family and the trust of the Iranian people, we continue striving to fulfill our commitments and to build a better future; a vision as expansive as the horizon itself.
