With an 800-ton daily production capacity, the Iraqi Diar factory project is the first of its kind, according to Prime Minister Mohamed Shia Al-Sudani, who also called on the private sector to invest in government support and remove bureaucratic barriers.
According to an announcement obtained by the Iraqi News Agency (INA) from the Prime Minister's Media Office, "Prime Minister Muhammad Shia Al-Sudani, launched in Najaf province the executive work in the Iraqi Diyar factory project for glass production."
"This project represents the most important forms of cooperation between Iraq and Germany, which laid its foundation during Al-Sudani's visit to the German capital Berlin," he said, adding that it is the first to be implemented in accordance with the sovereign guarantees approved in the budget and in cooperation between the Iraqi Trade Bank TBI and the German Export Bank.
The Prime Minister commended "the efforts of the Ministry of Industry, the Industrial Property Authority, and other supporting bodies" and congratulated "the launch of this important project."
He emphasized that "an investor took over the provision of all services and implemented this factory in an industrial city; the industrial city is getting ready to welcome industrialists and provide land and services, which is a feature that we aspire to implement in all governorates."
He emphasized "the availability of many raw materials that have not been invested," pointing out that "the new project, which is the first for the production of glass, with a capacity of 800 tons per day, which means 25% of the need of the local market, will depend on silica available in Iraq."
Pointing to "the government's support for the private sector, and the provision of guarantees for all projects that represent a priority, especially the housing and construction sector, which represents a great demand for construction materials," he directed "the need to implement according to the plan and schedule."
Calling on the serious private sector to "take advantage of this important opportunity, in light of the government's continued removal of obstacles and bureaucracy, as this path will provide real job opportunities, and larger industries will be settled in this city and other industrial cities," he cited the "country's need for three times the existing factories to cover."
