About Samira
Samira Macaron is an Iranian pasta brand with roots dating back to 1978. Its products are manufactured by Manta Co., whose range centres on spaghetti, shaped pasta and traditional noodles. The company’s factory is located in the Simin Dasht Industrial Estate in Alborz Province, while its head office is in Tehran.
Samira’s portfolio includes spaghetti, short pasta shapes, lasagne, fettuccine, nest-shaped and fine vermicelli, and reshteh noodles used in Iranian ash dishes. Its shaped pasta range includes farfalle, shells, fusilli and penne, alongside vegetable varieties and alphabet and animal shapes.

Product development has extended beyond pasta shapes to include formulations such as pasta containing soy flour. The manufacturer describes the use of automated production equipment and chemical and microbiological laboratory checks as part of its production processes. Durum wheat is specified on the official product pages for several items, including lasagne, fettuccine nests and vegetable fusilli. Pack weight, units per carton and cooking times are also listed for individual products.
