About the Iranian Business Center
The Iranian Business Center (IBC) is an online directory of Iranian and Persian-owned businesses in the United States and Canada. It lists more than 700 businesses across all 50 states and Canada, organized by city, region, and category. IBC was built to solve a specific problem: talented Iranian business owners were hard to find online. A Persian dentist in Rockville, a rug dealer in Charlotte, a Farsi-speaking accountant in San Jose the work was excellent, but the visibility was not. IBC gives each of them a page, a category, and a place on the map.Who runs IBC
IBC was founded by Iman Baktash and is operated from Charlotte, North Carolina, by Danabak, a full-service digital marketing agency. Iman works in SEO, paid search, Google Business Profile optimization, and social media, helping small businesses get found online the same work that shaped how this directory is built. The team handles the directory day to day: reading new submissions, keeping listing details current, and publishing the monthly IBC Magazine for the Iranian-American community. We are not a marketplace and we take no commission. When you find a business here, you contact it directly.What the directory covers
Listings are grouped into categories including restaurants and bakeries, doctors and dentists, rug stores, realtors, lawyers, beauty and spas, auto services, grocery stores, financial services, and home services. Coverage is strongest where Iranian-American communities are largest California, Texas, New York, Maryland, Northern Virginia, Arizona, Washington, Georgia, and Florida with Toronto and Vancouver covering Canada. New cities are added as listings come in.
How listings are handled
Every submission is read by a person before it goes live. We check that the business exists, that the contact details work, and that the category is right. We do not verify professional licenses, credentials, or insurance. Choosing a doctor, lawyer, or contractor remains your decision, and we say this plainly rather than implying a level of vetting we do not perform. Listing details come from the business owners themselves through their dashboard, so owners can correct or remove their information at any time. If you find something inaccurate in a listing, tell us and we will look into it.What it costs
Basic listings are free. Paid options exist for businesses that want featured placement, a profile in the magazine, or event promotion.Beyond the directory
