About Rawae Al-Rafidain | Trading & Supply Company, Baghdad

Our story

The market's instincts, run on a modern supply chain

The company draws its name and its identity from the bounty of Mesopotamia — the land whose two rivers made agriculture possible in the first place. That is not decoration. It sets out what we choose to trade in: goods that people and animals depend on daily, in sectors that touch food and agricultural security directly.

We combine the instincts of the traditional market — knowing suppliers personally, reading a season early, settling fairly — with the discipline modern supply demands: written specifications, cold-chain handling, documented inspection and delivery you can plan around.

Today the company operates across three connected sectors: the trade and distribution of essential foodstuffs, the import and export of fresh fruit, and the supply of complete animal feed for the livestock sector.

The mark

What the logo carries

Three elements, each doing a job:

The date palm — the tree of Iraq, and the agricultural wealth this company trades in.
The two interwoven ribbons — the Tigris and the Euphrates, the rivers the company is named for, bound together.
The arch beneath — the built gateway of Mesopotamian architecture: trade passing through.

How we deal

Four commitments we can be held to

Quality is specified, not promised

Every line is bought against a written specification and checked against it on arrival. If a consignment falls short, it does not go out.

Continuity over opportunism

We hold alternative suppliers on every major line so seasonal gaps and import delays do not stop your shelves or your feed troughs.

Fair, written terms

Prices, quantities, tolerances and lead times are agreed in writing before goods move. No renegotiation on the loading bay.

Supporting local production

Where an Iraqi farm, mill or packer can meet the specification, we buy locally first — it shortens the chain and keeps value in the country.

Where we are going

Broader lines, deeper cold chain, more local sourcing

The plan is straightforward: widen the product range our customers can consolidate onto one order, extend temperature-controlled capacity so more categories can travel further, and increase the share we buy from Iraqi producers. Growth that makes the supply chain shorter, not longer.
