The city of Sultanabad (which is now known as Arak) was founded, in the early 1800s, as a center for commercial rug production in Iran. During the late 19th century, the firm of Hotz and Son and Ziegler and Co. established a manufacturer in Arak / Sultanabad whose sole objective was to produce rugs to meet the western demands.
