Pars Tarabar was founded in 1978 in Iran by experienced shipping and forwarding managers to fill a void in transportation services during a period of political unrest. In its early years, it partnered with German and Turkish companies to transport over 2 million tons of cargo from Europe to Iran via the Soviet Union and Turkey. As regional conflicts escalated, Pars Tarabar adapted its routes and began focusing on container shipping to and from Central Asia and Afghanistan via Iran's Bandar Abbas port. Today, after 34 years in business, Pars Tarabar offers a wide range of shipping and forwarding services and has gained extensive experience and recognition in diverse trade lanes.

2. 1978 – 1983
It was a humble start for us under a Joint Venture with
friends in TransCargo Hof, Germany ( Ex Managers of
Militzer & Muench ( M & M ) Germany – the renowned
German Forwarder ). New opportunities emerging with
the changes in Iran’s political arena after the Iranian
Revolution gave Pars Tarabar’s embryonic stage a
drastic impetus. During this period, working jointly with
Transcargo Germany as their General Agents under the
Transcargo Iran banner, Pars Tarabar handled a sizeable
quantity of containerized and break-bulk cargoes moved
from Europe by rail via the Trans Caucasian route to
Djulfa ( Iran / Soviet border). With joint marketing
efforts, over 2 million tons of chemicals, steel products
and machinery were moved from Europe by soviet
wagons to Djulfa and by vessel via Turkey overland to
Tehran which was delivered to various Iranian traders by
Pars Tarabar. With the disintegration of the Soviet
Union and the resulting unrest in the region, support of
this conventional rail route gradually waned and
ultimately was fully replaced by a multi-modal
combined route via the Turkish land-bridge.
1983 – 1987
These years were hectic activities via
the Turkish route for us acting as
General Agents for Deutsche Nah Ost
Linie ( DNOL ) Hamburg moving about
1 million tons of containerized cargo
from North West European Ports by
vessel and truck using the Turkish
Mediterranean port Mersin for
transhipment to Iran. The escalation of
the Iran-Iraq war and the ensuing
changes in transportation policies
downsized support of the Turkish route
and the more secure and cheaper Deep
Sea route to Bandar Abbas was
encouraged by the Industry.
1978 - It was the conception of a group
of ambitious persons holding
managerial positions in various Shipping
& Forwarding concerns ( in particular at
the Iran Agency of Militzer & Muench
Hof ) and specialized in the
transportation sector to fill the vacuity
created in the Transport Service Industry
due to the political unrest in Iran during
the late 1970s that laid the core of Pars
Tarabar in 1978.
