About Persian Arena
Finding an Iranian pastry shop, a Persian-speaking lawyer or a barber who knows your hair in a new city usually means asking around in Telegram groups and trawling Instagram. Persian Arena puts the same information in one place, and makes it searchable.
What we do
We collect Persian-speaking businesses city by city, check their details before they go live, and give their owners the tools to keep the listing, the opening hours and the prices up to date themselves. Searching and getting in touch is always free for customers.
What we don't do
We take no orders, handle no payments and broker no deals. Our job is the introduction; the rest happens between you and the business.
Run a business?
Listing is free, and photographing your menu or service list gets it done in a few minutes.
Who runs Persian Arena
Iman Amirtaheri
Founder
Software engineer in Turin and a graduate of Politecnico di Torino. Started Persian Arena after seeing how hard it is for Persian speakers in a new city to find the businesses they need.
Persian Arena is built and run by one person today. Anything you send reaches that person directly.
