Our company

Our Story

From a Baghdad trading house founded in 2014 to a national retail and distribution network, and now IFAR Store for e-commerce, Amin Alsharq grows with the brands we represent.

We represent internationally established names and deliver them through a disciplined retail network, from Karrada in Baghdad to Erbil, with a regional office in Dubai. The work is process-led: planning, coordination, and on-ground execution that is built, not rushed.

  • Own mono retail stores with national coverage
  • Strategic wholesale partnerships across Iraq
  • Sport footwear and apparel distribution at scale
