21% of Iran’s non-oil exports destined for Iraq: Official

Mohammadrezazadeh, who is currently the chair of Iraq desk at Iran's Chamber of Commerce, said that the UAE, Turkey, China and Iran are the four main importers to Iraq having 25, 18, 17 and 13 percent shares in the Iraqi market, respectively.

Production units need physical presence in Iraq if they aim to stay in the Iraqi market as projects in Iraq cannot be managed from far away, Mohammadrezazadeh said during a meeting of economic operators of Iraq and northern Iranian Province of Alborz on Sunday.

“The Iraqi market is a good opportunity for us and if we hesitate, we will lose this market to other countries,” the official added.
