Merooj

Merooj is an Iranian sports producer and athletic-brand business headquartered in Andimeshk, in Khuzestan Province. The name is derived from a Luri word meaning “ant.” The company was established by Majid Saedifar and has operated across sports footwear, athletic clothing, and related accessories. Available reference material identifies Merooj as both a producing company and a consumer-facing sports brand rather than solely as a retailer or team merchandise label. The brand’s product scope covers athletic shoes, sports clothing, and accessories. Detailed information about individual product families, manufacturing capacity, distribution, sales, and international corporate structure is not established in the available material. The company’s public profile has instead been particularly visible through sports partnerships. Merooj supplied official apparel for the 2013 FIVB Beach Volleyball World Tour, giving the Iranian brand an international event-platform presence. Merooj has also sponsored or supplied a range of national teams and clubs. The referenced team portfolio includes Iran’s football national team, Persepolis, Persepolis Women, and Esteghlal Khuzestan in football. In volleyball, the listed national-team relationships include Bangladesh, Iran, Pakistan, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan. These associations position the brand around organized competitive sport, national representation, and teamwear rather than lifestyle fashion alone. The available reference states that Merooj has since been rebranded as Majid. The timing, legal mechanics, ownership structure, and current operating status of that rebrand are not documented in the supplied material. Consequently, Merooj is best described as a historically established Iranian sports brand whose name has been associated with athletic products and sponsorship activity, while its present relationship to the Majid name requires further verification.

Merooj developed as an Iranian sports producer and brand associated with athletic footwear, clothing, accessories, and team apparel. The company was founded by Majid Saedifar and established its headquarters in Andimeshk, Khuzestan Province. The brand name is reported to come from a Luri term meaning “ant,” linking the identity to a regional Iranian language and cultural context. Publicly available information does not provide a detailed chronology of the company’s incorporation, early manufacturing operations, retail expansion, or changes in ownership. It does, however, identify Merooj as a producer with a broad sports offering rather than a narrowly focused footwear label. Its portfolio has included athletic shoes, sports garments, and accessories, while its partnerships have extended into organized team sport. A notable international milestone came in 2013, when Merooj was the official apparel supplier for the FIVB Beach Volleyball World Tour. This relationship gave the company visibility beyond Iran and associated its products with a global volleyball competition. The available material does not specify the number of events, contract value, product range, or duration beyond the 2013 tour year. Merooj has also been connected with national teams and clubs in football and volleyball. The football sponsorship list includes Iran’s national team, Persepolis, Persepolis Women, and Esteghlal Khuzestan. The volleyball list includes national teams from Bangladesh, Iran, Pakistan, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan. These relationships indicate a strategic emphasis on teamwear, federation visibility, and competitive-sport credibility. The reference material states that the company is now rebranded as Majid. No reliable details are supplied about when the transition occurred, whether Majid represents a successor legal entity or a refreshed consumer brand, or whether Merooj remains in use in any markets. As a result, the historical record supports describing Merooj as an Iranian sports brand with international sports-sponsorship activity, but not making firm claims about its current commercial status.
