TRBusiness interview: Fouad Jabbour, Iraq Duty Free

By Andrew Pentol |

Iraq Duty Free is targeting year-on-year turnover growth of around 25% in 2019. 

Last year, turnover increased around +22% compared to 2018 and this year started well with turnover up +17% between January and August compared to the same period last year. This was driven by strong performance across the retailer’s two major categories which are perfumes and cosmetics and confectionery. Liquor and tobacco rank third and fourth respectively.

Fouad Jabbour, General Manager, Iraq Duty Free told TRBusiness:  “We’re expanding our brand portfolio and have introduced Givenchy and Kenzo in 2019, along with Dolce & Gabbana, Elie Saab, Narciso Rodriguez and Issey Miyake.”
