High-quality and proper production requires suitable raw material that is up to international standards. Therefore, given the diversity of the products, they are classified in five different categories; the largest of these groups is milk. The raw material required for these five categories is provided from nine different regions in the country. The second stage is providing the material and necessities that include sugar, cooking oil, cocoa powder, stabilizer, and preservatives. The items related to packaging and printing are the third group, which includes paper, nylon, IML containers, and ice-cream containers. The forth category is related to none-production equipment including machinery, technical requirements, facilities and administrative equipment. The fifth category is related to acquiring meat products from ranchers, slaughterhouses, and importers and is one of the most important parts of the meat supply chain.

Mr. Gholamali Soleimani was born in in the northern Iranian city of Amol. He studied Mathematics in Shahid Beheshti University in Tehran during which he started his small business. This began with production and distribution of hamburgers in a small workshop and was the base of his success in the meat products business followed by equal success in the dairy industry and many other food production fields.

One of the most important points after the acquirement of raw material is transportation of these materials to warehouses around the country as well as to the manufacturing sectors. They need modern and efficient trucks for transportation, which should be loaded quickly and delivered in the shortest time possible to the subsidiary manufacturing facilities of the Solico Company across the country to maintain their high quality.

Since then, Mr. Soleimani has established a new production plant almost every year and his Holding, Solico Group, presently consists of more than companies. Based on his vast local market experience, special consideration has been given to vertical integration for the business expansion. Also implementation of Enterprise Resource Planning by means of ERP has been introduced to ensure further efficiency in the huge supply chain. Tehran Meat Products Co., established in with a daily production of hamburger patties, is now grown to a producer of over tonnes per day of various meat products.

Mr. Soleimani, senior managers of the company, Dr. Naseri Moghadam, officials from health ministry, National Standard Organization, The Iranian Department of Environment, Parliament members and Celiac Association Members as well as journalists were present at this ceremony.
