The procurement of raw materials and machinery serves as a crucial but weighty task for each firm, which operates independently, especially given the presence of rather strict import restrictions imposed by the government. The namāyande Namāyande system functioned as a cure for this difficult situation encountered by small-scale firmsSmall-scale firm . The lack of knowledge in firms for collecting and analyzing the information that a namāyande provided made him necessary for firms. Business management based on personal relationships is another factor making the namāyande a necessary player for firms, who seek to strengthen their external information channels by developing reliable relationships through extremely personal ties with their namāyande to survive in Iran’s fluid business environment.
