3.5.2 Iraq Additional Suppliers
Overview
the Iraqi market is mainly depending on import for most of supplies. Manufacturing and production factories are very few in the country and limited to specific industries such as oil, water tanks, plastic/nylon materials and construction materials such as cement and brick. Wide range of products that is needed by the humanitarian actors are available by wholesalers however, most of them are imported. Most of wholesalers are in the capital or big cities such as Baghdad, Erbil, Sulaymaniyah, and Basra. Tents, water pumps, pipes, water tanks, office furniture, potable water are available in country however IT and communication equipment are special case. some of items falls under approval from different government authorities such as ministry of interior and intelligence.
The main challenges in Iraqi market linked to humanitarian actors is most of the wholesalers in the capital are not complying with UN/ INGO procurement terms and conditions such as having bank accounts or accepting bank transfer payment to the firm bank account. Moreover, they accept direct contracting and/or advanced cash payment therefore general trading, medium size or retail firms are more likely to be contracted if bulk quantities are needed. Situation is different in KRI, wholesalers are more flexible and can comply with humanitarian procurement terms and conditions.
Throughout the crisis of ISIS in 2014, some of suppliers/service providers have developed a good experience to respond to the humanitarian needs responding to the ongoing crisis. Through working with the UN agencies and NGOs, they developed a good understand and knowledge of the policies and rules/regulations of the humanitarian organizations.
