Behawta Company for General Trading and Commercial Agencies Ltd., the exclusive distributor in Iraq for the full range of Polaris models, has renewed its cooperation agreement with U.S.-based Polaris during a signing ceremony held in the United States. The ceremony was attended by Mr. Sardar Al-Bebany, Chairman of Sardar Group, and, representing Polaris, Mr. Robert Hood, Vice President of Government Relations, and Mr. Chris Judson, Vice President and General Manager of Off-Road Vehicles. The renewal reflects both parties’ commitment to expanding their cooperation by providing practical and reliable mobility solutions that meet the needs of the Iraqi market and support growth across related sectors.
This step builds on the cooperation between Behawta and Polaris, which began in 2014. Over more than a decade of joint work, the partnership has developed into a long-term international collaboration that creates tangible opportunities in Iraq. The renewal also carries added significance as it coincides with Mr. Sardar Al-Bebany’s participation in the business delegation accompanying the Iraqi Prime Minister during his visit to Washington, highlighting the role of Iraq’s private sector in strengthening economic and investment relations between Iraq and the United States. It also reflects the continued development of bilateral economic cooperation through projects and investments based on trust and the exchange of expertise, strengthening the presence of global brands in the Iraqi market and demonstrating the ability of Iraq’s private sector to build strong institutional relationships with leading American companies.
