- [2026-08-14 15:58:47 - 2026-08-14 15:58:48] **Reza:** Hello, Ben.
- [2026-08-14 15:58:48 - 2026-08-14 15:58:48] **Reza:** Hi.
- [2026-08-14 15:58:48 - 2026-08-14 15:58:49] **Reza:** Hi.
- [2026-08-14 15:58:50 - 2026-08-14 15:58:51] **Reza:** Are you okay?
- [2026-08-14 15:58:52 - 2026-08-14 15:58:53] **Reza:** I'm all right.
- [2026-08-14 15:58:53 - 2026-08-14 15:58:57] **Reza:** You know, someone told me to make an appointment with you.
- [2026-08-14 15:58:57 - 2026-08-14 15:58:57] **Unknown:** Yes.
- [2026-08-14 15:58:58 - 2026-08-14 15:58:58] **Reza:** I think.
- [2026-08-14 15:58:59 - 2026-08-14 15:58:59] **Reza:** Yeah.
- [2026-08-14 15:58:59 - 2026-08-14 15:59:00] **Reza:** I'll make a appointment.
- [2026-08-14 15:59:00 - 2026-08-14 15:59:05] **Reza:** It's not a graphic theater, but it is probably Tuesday or something.
- [2026-08-14 15:59:06 - 2026-08-14 15:59:06] **Reza:** Okay.
- [2026-08-14 15:59:07 - 2026-08-14 15:59:12] **Reza:** The background of it, I didn't know until someone told me,
- [2026-08-14 15:59:12 - 2026-08-14 15:59:17] **Reza:** but the intentions are to buy it under another company.
- [2026-08-14 15:59:18 - 2026-08-14 15:59:20] **Unknown:** No, that wasn't discussed with Daman.
- [2026-08-14 15:59:22 - 2026-08-14 15:59:23] **Unknown:** That wasn't discussed.
- [2026-08-14 15:59:23 - 2026-08-14 15:59:32] **Reza:** It wasn't discussed, so we better know before what the intentions are.
- [2026-08-14 15:59:32 - 2026-08-14 15:59:36] **Unknown:** I think his first intention, because he's getting that shop,
- [2026-08-14 15:59:36 - 2026-08-14 15:59:39] **Unknown:** he's opening that shop and he wants to use pizza-made sauce,
- [2026-08-14 15:59:39 - 2026-08-14 15:59:43] **Unknown:** and he was thinking any way he can to get pizza-made sauce for that shop.
- [2026-08-14 15:59:44 - 2026-08-14 15:59:44] **Unknown:** And then he said,
- [2026-08-14 15:59:45 - 2026-08-14 15:59:50] **Behnam:** He started talking to Mohammed, his son-in-law in Middlesbrough, and he said we can get them
- [2026-08-14 15:59:50 - 2026-08-14 15:59:54] **Behnam:** to fund it and make a contract and get a fresh container.
- [2026-08-14 15:59:55 - 2026-08-14 15:59:59] **Behnam:** Exactly who is planning to do it, in his favor or benefit, I don't know.
- [2026-08-14 15:59:59 - 2026-08-14 16:00:28] **Reza:** But between us, as far as I'm gathering, today, his intention is not to involve the TLC in
- [2026-08-14 16:00:28 - 2026-08-14 16:00:32] **Reza:** a way to buy the source under that new company.
- [2026-08-14 16:00:32 - 2026-08-14 16:00:33] **Reza:** I know.
- [2026-08-14 16:00:33 - 2026-08-14 16:00:34] **Behnam:** Definitely he wants that.
- [2026-08-14 16:00:35 - 2026-08-14 16:00:36] **Behnam:** He's wanting it all the time, yeah.
- [2026-08-14 16:00:37 - 2026-08-14 16:00:44] **Reza:** You know, and it's like you're hijacking, you know, our craft, and this and that.
- [2026-08-14 16:00:45 - 2026-08-14 16:00:48] **Reza:** But that should not be that serious.
- [2026-08-14 16:00:48 - 2026-08-14 16:00:51] **Reza:** That is really undermining us.
- [2026-08-14 16:00:51 - 2026-08-14 16:00:54] **Behnam:** Yeah, but it's not the first time he's done that, to be honest.
- [2026-08-14 16:00:55 - 2026-08-14 16:00:58] **Behnam:** He's very, very good at looking after himself.
- [2026-08-14 16:00:59 - 2026-08-14 16:01:00] **Reza:** Yeah, of course it is.
- [2026-08-14 16:01:02 - 2026-08-14 16:01:08] **Reza:** I think we should all go to that meeting.
- [2026-08-14 16:01:08 - 2026-08-14 16:01:11] **Behnam:** If we can go without him, it's even better.
- [2026-08-14 16:01:12 - 2026-08-14 16:01:13] **Behnam:** But we don't know when it is.
- [2026-08-14 16:01:16 - 2026-08-14 16:01:17] **Reza:** I find that.
- [2026-08-14 16:01:17 - 2026-08-14 16:01:19] **Reza:** Okay, we can do it without him.
- [2026-08-14 16:01:19 - 2026-08-14 16:01:20] **Behnam:** It's better for us.
- [2026-08-14 16:01:21 - 2026-08-14 16:01:26] **Reza:** Yeah, but can we pay for a container load?
- [2026-08-14 16:01:26 - 2026-08-14 16:01:29] **Behnam:** No, but we need to bring him involved for Middlesbrough.
- [2026-08-14 16:01:30 - 2026-08-14 16:01:31] **Behnam:** And maybe that'll come.
- [2026-08-14 16:01:32 - 2026-08-14 16:01:39] **Behnam:** Because as I understood it, he wants to be ready to pay for a container load himself in Middlesbrough anyway.
- [2026-08-14 16:01:41 - 2026-08-14 16:01:44] **Reza:** He wants to have that brand for himself.
- [2026-08-14 16:01:48 - 2026-08-14 16:02:00] **Behnam:** I don't know about Mohamed, Mohamed wants the sauce and he's willing to pay for it up front.
- [2026-08-14 16:02:02 - 2026-08-14 16:02:11] **Reza:** Damoun wants to hijack it and that's the deal, he talks to them a lot and he talks to Delicor
- [2026-08-14 16:02:11 - 2026-08-14 16:02:16] **Behnam:** a lot, he goes to Leeds to visit friends and he pops into Delicor as a chat with them making
- [2026-08-14 16:02:16 - 2026-08-14 16:02:19] **Reza:** his own plans, which I don't know what's going on.
- [2026-08-14 16:02:20 - 2026-08-14 16:02:30] **Reza:** I need to go see the boss as well, Mohamed, because he asked me how's the situation, how
- [2026-08-14 16:02:30 - 2026-08-14 16:02:30] **Reza:** are you.
- [2026-08-14 16:02:31 - 2026-08-14 16:02:42] **Reza:** It's about that money as well that I'm paying him and so we better be straight with Damoun,
- [2026-08-14 16:02:43 - 2026-08-14 16:02:44] **Reza:** so that's enough.
- [2026-08-14 16:02:45 - 2026-08-14 16:02:47] **Reza:** Why under a different company?
- [2026-08-14 16:02:48 - 2026-08-14 16:02:49] **Unknown:** You know what I mean?
- [2026-08-14 16:02:49 - 2026-08-14 16:02:52] **Reza:** It's after a fifth in a container of...
- [2026-08-14 16:02:52 - 2026-08-14 16:02:53] **Reza:** Of course, yeah.
- [2026-08-14 16:02:53 - 2026-08-14 16:02:56] **Reza:** Why should it be under a different company
- [2026-08-14 16:02:56 - 2026-08-14 16:02:59] **Reza:** when this company, when we have worked for it
- [2026-08-14 16:02:59 - 2026-08-14 16:03:04] **Reza:** for years and years to bring it to the thing?
- [2026-08-14 16:03:08 - 2026-08-14 16:03:10] **Reza:** It's not pleasant.
- [2026-08-14 16:03:11 - 2026-08-14 16:03:12] **Reza:** You know what I mean?
- [2026-08-14 16:03:12 - 2026-08-14 16:03:15] **Reza:** And then I speak to Manu.
- [2026-08-14 16:03:15 - 2026-08-14 16:03:20] **Reza:** It's for what's his name?
- [2026-08-14 16:03:37 - 2026-08-14 16:03:38] **Unknown:** He's too good, I know.
- [2026-08-14 16:03:45 - 2026-08-14 16:03:50] **Reza:** He's not come here to hijack brands and get it for nothing.
- [2026-08-14 16:03:51 - 2026-08-14 16:03:52] **Reza:** No, exactly.
- [2026-08-14 16:03:52 - 2026-08-14 16:03:54] **Reza:** That belongs to TH.
- [2026-08-14 16:03:54 - 2026-08-14 16:03:55] **Reza:** No.
- [2026-08-14 16:03:58 - 2026-08-14 16:04:00] **Reza:** Why does it have to be a different company?
- [2026-08-14 16:04:01 - 2026-08-14 16:04:04] **Behnam:** Yeah, I think it's better if he's not present at the appointment.
- [2026-08-14 16:04:04 - 2026-08-14 16:04:06] **Behnam:** He doesn't need to know when it is.
- [2026-08-14 16:04:06 - 2026-08-14 16:04:11] **Reza:** I know the answer would be it's risky.
- [2026-08-14 16:04:11 - 2026-08-14 16:04:12] **Reza:** Don't worry.
- [2026-08-14 16:04:12 - 2026-08-14 16:04:15] **Behnam:** Yeah, you'll find out when the appointment is.
- [2026-08-14 16:04:15 - 2026-08-14 16:04:16] **Reza:** Yeah.
- [2026-08-14 16:04:16 - 2026-08-14 16:04:17] **Reza:** And we'll go.
- [2026-08-14 16:04:17 - 2026-08-14 16:04:18] **Behnam:** You and I will go.
- [2026-08-14 16:04:18 - 2026-08-14 16:04:24] **Reza:** You don't want to do that, like, say you can't come in, but we have to clear it.
- [2026-08-14 16:04:24 - 2026-08-14 16:04:25] **Behnam:** No, I'd do it anyway, you know.
- [2026-08-14 16:04:26 - 2026-08-14 16:04:27] **Reza:** We'll see.
- [2026-08-14 16:04:27 - 2026-08-14 16:04:29] **Behnam:** Let me see when it is passed.
- [2026-08-14 16:04:29 - 2026-08-14 16:04:33] **Reza:** And it's not the sort of artist shop or anything.
- [2026-08-14 16:04:33 - 2026-08-14 16:04:34] **Reza:** I don't think.
- [2026-08-14 16:04:34 - 2026-08-14 16:04:38] **Behnam:** It started with that because he was trying so many different pizza sauces.
- [2026-08-14 16:04:39 - 2026-08-14 16:04:42] **Behnam:** And it reminded him that that one is special.
- [2026-08-14 16:04:43 - 2026-08-14 16:04:43] **Reza:** Yeah.
- [2026-08-14 16:04:45 - 2026-08-14 16:04:51] **Reza:** I mean, yeah, it is, but I don't think the whole, there's ulterior motive here.
- [2026-08-14 16:04:51 - 2026-08-14 16:04:53] **Reza:** Of course there is, you always have.
- [2026-08-14 16:04:53 - 2026-08-14 16:04:58] **Reza:** And he's telling me that you've got a brand of flour and this and that, you know what I mean?
- [2026-08-14 16:04:59 - 2026-08-14 16:05:03] **Reza:** I say it's a brand and I work on it and I build a business on that.
- [2026-08-14 16:05:03 - 2026-08-14 16:05:10] **Reza:** Who the hell he is to come and take our brand or whatever, you know,
- [2026-08-14 16:05:10 - 2026-08-14 16:05:13] **Reza:** just because we are in a problem with a container of people, so it's direct.
- [2026-08-14 16:05:16 - 2026-08-14 16:05:23] **Reza:** Okay, that is exactly the same thing that Akbar did, you know, but with a different way.
- [2026-08-14 16:05:25 - 2026-08-14 16:05:31] **Reza:** That's just no proper honesty and there's no good intention there, you know.
- [2026-08-14 16:05:32 - 2026-08-14 16:05:33] **Behnam:** No, he hasn't gone.
- [2026-08-14 16:05:34 - 2026-08-14 16:05:39] **Reza:** Every time a customer comes along, he gets to know them personally
- [2026-08-14 16:05:39 - 2026-08-14 16:05:41] **Behnam:** and starts arranging some other business.
- [2026-08-14 16:05:41 - 2026-08-14 16:05:43] **Behnam:** Oh, I've got this idea, I've got that idea.
- [2026-08-14 16:05:44 - 2026-08-14 16:05:44] **Behnam:** And before.
- [2026-08-14 16:05:45 - 2026-08-14 16:05:51] **Reza:** only Iranian, and he's like running all the things with everybody all the time, everything.
- [2026-08-14 16:05:51 - 2026-08-14 16:05:53] **Behnam:** He's a bit on with the place as well.
- [2026-08-14 16:05:53 - 2026-08-14 16:05:58] **Unknown:** It doesn't matter about those people, those people have their goods, they buy it.
- [2026-08-14 16:05:58 - 2026-08-14 16:06:02] **Behnam:** But it does, because when they had to pay, he very upset me.
- [2026-08-14 16:06:02 - 2026-08-14 16:06:07] **Behnam:** And he says, people ask to pay him money for the business.
- [2026-08-14 16:06:08 - 2026-08-14 16:06:14] **Behnam:** And he talked with some Iranians and he said, pay the money to me, not to TLC.
- [2026-08-14 16:06:14 - 2026-08-14 16:06:16] **Behnam:** That's okay, that's wrong.
- [2026-08-14 16:06:18 - 2026-08-14 16:06:20] **Unknown:** He's had all his money back, hasn't he?
- [2026-08-14 16:06:20 - 2026-08-14 16:06:22] **Behnam:** Yeah, a long, long, long time ago.
- [2026-08-14 16:06:22 - 2026-08-14 16:06:23] **Unknown:** So what's he doing?
- [2026-08-14 16:06:24 - 2026-08-14 16:06:28] **Reza:** No, he's just like looking after himself now.
- [2026-08-14 16:06:29 - 2026-08-14 16:06:30] **Unknown:** Ask him big.
- [2026-08-14 16:06:30 - 2026-08-14 16:06:32] **Behnam:** Yeah, talk about that.
- [2026-08-14 16:06:32 - 2026-08-14 16:06:37] **Unknown:** Yeah, I was there and he was just following me and talking about it, and I didn't like it.
- [2026-08-14 16:06:38 - 2026-08-14 16:06:43] **Unknown:** And I said, well, even if you pay or anybody pays, the goods are here in front of our eyes.
- [2026-08-14 16:06:44 - 2026-08-14 16:06:44] **Unknown:** Yeah.
