They call his name and the sound of applause fills the room. Gholam Ali Soleimani walks up the stage to receive his award as one of the Most Influential People in the world of Islamic economy.

This ceremony was held on Tuesday, October , in Kuala Lumpur at the official opening of the sixth Conference on Trade and Finance of the Islamic world in Putra World Trade Center.

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.
