Tayebeh Bazargan: A Trailblazer in Weaving and Empowerment

Introduction: Tayebeh Bazargan is a pioneering entrepreneur whose unwavering determination and innovative spirit have defined her path to success. Specializing in the exquisite art of weaving, her expertise spans rugs, tapestry rugs, kilims, and double-sided silk carpets. She operates her own professional workshop and has become a beacon of inspiration in her field.

Journey: In 1997, as a teenager, Tayebeh visited a village that sparked her passion for rug weaving. Her initial experience, weaving in dark basements, ignited a resolve to uplift women from such confines. Following this, the Agricultural Jihad Organization offered free weaving workshops in her village, charging only 2,500 Tomans for the yarn. Encouraged by her father, Tayebeh delved into weaving, receiving city orders and sharing her knowledge with surrounding villages. Her efforts led to the creation of a network of over ten weavers who now support themselves through the craft.

Professional Milestones: After 11 years of honing her skills in the village, Tayebeh established her own workshop in Bojnurd. She continued to innovate and implement ideas, eventually founding Yas Company, dedicated to the Imam of the Time (may God hasten his reappearance).
