Tiryaki Iraq

At Tiryaki, we play a strategic role in strengthening regional food security and supply chain resilience. In line with this mission, we established our facility at the Port of Umm Qasr — Tiryaki’s first and largest overseas investment — in collaboration with the International Finance Corporation (IFC), a member of the World Bank Group. The facility is one of the largest soy crushing and corn storage complexes in the region.

With a 40% market share in Iraq’s soy, soybean meal, corn, and feed markets, Tiryaki Agro holds a leading position in the country. Our USD 150 million soy crushing and feed production facility at the Port of Umm Qasr has quickly become Iraq’s largest poultry feed supplier. The soybean oil produced at the facility is exported to neighboring countries, contributing to both Iraq’s food security and export capacity. In addition, through joint programs with Iraq’s state grain authority, GBI, we also support wheat import operations for the country.

In September 2025, we launched a strategic partnership with IFC aimed at strengthening food and feed security across Iraq. This collaboration includes feasibility studies for the establishment of Food and Feed Security Compounds (FFSCs) nationwide. Building upon our existing operations in Umm Qasr, this new initiative represents a continuation of Tiryaki Agro’s vision to develop an integrated, sustainable, and long-term agricultural supply chain that supports responsible production and regional food security.
