Baharan Beekeeping Farm / Abdullah Amiri
beekeeper · honey producer
Guldan Village, Chak District, Maidan Wardak Province, Afghanistan
Baharan is a beekeeping and honey enterprise in Maidan Wardak, also documented as “Baharan Honey and Bee Production Company.” A May 2026 report names Abdullah Amiri as manager of Baharan Beekeeping Farm, while a UNDP ABADEI-impact publication profiles Ahmad Amiri as the beekeeper entrepreneur behind Baharan Honey and Bee Production in Guldan Village, Chak District. The public record does not show whether these references describe one enterprise with multiple principals, a succession, or closely associated but separate operations.
About the Producer
A little history
Baharan grew after its beekeeper entrepreneur entered beekeeping through training and encouragement. Production fell and staff were lost during the COVID-19 period and Afghanistan’s political transition. Later business support covered management, quality control, pricing, packaging, warehousing, and marketing; a UNDP ABADEI-impact publication reports a 22% increase in sales. The consulted sources do not establish a founding year.
How They Work
Beekeeping in practice
A small-scale beekeeping farm and honey-production business. In May 2026, it had about 120 hives, rising to 200–250 during the year. A separate business-support case study for the closely named Baharan Honey and Bee Production Company describes improvements in packaging, inventory, sales records, quality control, and marketing.
