A delegation of Iraqi small and medium enterprises (SMEs), led by Mr. Maytham K. Khedheyer, SMEs Advisor at the Iraq Britain Business Council (IBBC), attended the Spring Fair at the NEC Birmingham, a key trade event for the home, gift, and fashion industries in the UK.

Organised by IBBC, the visit offered Iraqi businesses a valuable chance to explore market trends, connect with international suppliers, and discover innovative products across various sectors.

Throughout the event, the Iraqi delegation engaged with exhibitors from the UK and beyond, building potential partnerships and discussing expansion opportunities. The visit underscores IBBC’s dedication to helping Iraqi SMEs integrate into global markets and strengthen the private sector.

Mr Monahad Altattab, IBBC Bagdad director says’ we are pleased by the regular and large volume of Iraq SME’s coming to the UK’s exhibitions and fairs, as not only is it great to see the range of products available on the market, but the SME’s have the opportunity to integrate into modern global supply chains.
