Tehran's Zero Inflation plan Fixed goods and access

Sep 29

The anchor dates Tehran's twelve-essential-goods fixed-price program to Mehr 7 and says it will continue until Farvardin next year. The field report includes residents' unfamiliarity and skepticism, a detailed price list, household-head national-ID authentication and purchases through Shahrezad or municipal markets. Shahrezad requires Level Two registration and offers delivery or collection. Mehdi Chamran advocates bulk purchases without intermediaries; Lotfollah Forouzandeh says warehousing standards and hygiene are monitored. Frozen chicken, cheese and tomato paste are promised for Aban. This concerns selected goods, not an end to general inflation or proven universal access.

IRINN reports the launch of Tehran's Zero Inflation scheme for twelve essential goods on September 29, 2026, with fixed prices intended for six months through Farvardin 1406. Its October 3 field report shows selected residents' unfamiliarity and skepticism, a price list, household-head national-ID authentication, Shahrzad Level Two registration, and delivery or collection through the platform and municipal markets. Mehdi Chamran advocates bulk purchases without intermediaries; Lotfollah Forouzandeh gives standards and hygiene assurances. Frozen chicken, cheese and tomato paste are planned for Aban. In the October 5 published excerpt, mayor Alireza Zakani says the guarantees began the previous week, describes prices 5–50 percent below the current market while distinguishing oil and sugar's guaranteed prices, and explains monthly or two-month household quotas, with quantities for a family of four. He describes home delivery, 108 participating municipal markets and eleven Shahrvand stores, and reiterates Aban expansion to fifteen goods and more than 200 distribution sites by doubling participating markets. His guarantees and expansion pledge are official claims, not independently measured access, completed expansion or zero general inflation. The September 29 broadcast calls the scheme launched that day while carrying an official statement of Saturday, October 3 availability at participating outlets. The October 3 report again dates the launch to September 29, and Zakani's October 5 account says the previous week. Retain September 29 as the reported launch date; the precise operational onset across outlets is not settled by these accounts.
