Success


Company's History and Success:

The Eastern Company is one of the largest Iraqi companies in the field of commercial representation and marketing. Our company is committed to working for the international business interests of its clients and to promote their products and services in Iraq.

We already represent or have a cooperation agreement with over 15 well-known international companies. We were established and licensed from the Iraqi Ministry of Trade in 1989 (license #148/89 dated: 4/10/1989) in accordance with current Iraqi laws concerning companies and commercial agencies (companies law no. 11 of 1983) and (Agency law no. 51 of 2000).

Our work is devoted to promote our clients' products and provide necessary services as needed. This includes following up and implementing all concerns of the represented companies inside Iraq. Our services start with the introduction of the company's products and services inside Iraq all the way through finalizing their supply contract and receipt of its goods by the end user.

The Iraqi economy is considered one of the strongest in the Middle East as Iraq still has one of the largest oil reservoirs in the world. In the near future, when peace is established, Iraq will be establishing a new political system and leadership. This system will almost certainly have a more open trade with the U.S. than the previous one. With this in mind and the definite lift of UN sanctions, these changes will create a suitable environment for U.S. and international manufacturers.

The Eastern Company's role is to search for reputable international manufactures and suppliers and interest them in either exploring the Iraqi market as a potential target for their product or resume their activities if the suppliers already had worked in the Iraqi market before 1991.

Our company has already succeeded in negotiating and finalizing contracts between several Iraqi customers and the international companies that we represent. These contracts have exceeded a total amount of thirty five million USD in the past six years alone. Per UN agreements, all contracts are UN approved and have been implemented successfully with customers' full satisfaction.

All this success was possible because of the mutual efforts of the companies that we represent and the successful planning of The Eastern Company's top management.
