What are the fundamentals of domestic product support?

In recent years, there has been a clear development of the Iraqi product in the local market, a variety of food products, milk, textiles and petrochemical industries. This applies to companies, factories and factories in the various public and private sectors.



As a follower of economic affairs, it led me to search for the reasons that led to the strong presence in the markets for Iraqi products after its presence was very little after 2003 and the citizen was rushing to consume imported goods. This presence in the market reveals with certainty that the steps of supporting the industry have borne fruit.



In the year 2007, which witnessed security instability in most of the provinces of Iraq there were calls to grant companies belonging to the Ministry of Industry and Minerals to investors, whether foreigners or Iraqis to start moving the wheel of production and not to keep the situation as it would harm this sector and make the foreign producer dominates the local scene .



In the same year we had a follow-up with the Ministry of Industry and Minerals, which announced the issuance of investment files related to companies semi-idle investment or in the process of production in order to improve the way and was a step in the right direction in our opinion that the investment is the only solution to put a dead for years.



And in front of this reality full of optimism for our Iraqi industry has become necessary to work together to support the product, and we believe there are important steps must be taken, including the most important:



1 - Directing government and private companies to hold a joint conference highlighted by the media, and here should play the Iraqi Journalists Association the largest role in this by urging the media in various institutions to encourage citizens to buy the national product.



2 - The need for companies to organize a specialized exhibition in which all its diverse products are exposed, and Labas announced the agreements it had with the foreign companies, which benefited from their experience in developing the production, if any, and it is appropriate to launch the label (Made in Iraq) on the exhibition.



3- The government has an important role in this matter as well. The importance lies in the appointment of periodic meetings with officials and directors of private companies to ensure that the responsible authorities in the state seek to support these companies and provide the requirements for success of production. The most important is to facilitate the purchase of machines and advanced equipment in production and coordination with embassies Arab and foreign countries to facilitate the transfer of these machines and open a field of partnership with the experienced.



4 - To create a competitive situation between companies in order to increase the pace of production by honoring the companies that produce the largest sales in the market, and another honor for companies that export their product abroad.



5 - The companies themselves can self-declaration of their products through the sale of products to employees of government departments in coordination with the official bodies, and make special offers from time to time to encourage citizens.



These are the most important points that we see as important to achieve our intention to return Iraqi industry to its predecessors not only internally, but also outside the country when it exported Iraqi goods such as manufactured dates, sweets, leather, textiles and other neighboring countries.
