Mabiati, Al Jabal Agriculture Secures Six-Figure Investments from Iraqi Investors

The funding was announced for two companies, Mabiati and Al Jabal Agriculture, both supported by Orange Corners Baghdad and the Orange Corners Innovation Fund (OCIF) Iraq. The money will help them grow their businesses and expand digital solutions in important sectors of Iraq’s economy.

Mabiati is an e-commerce platform started by Iraqi entrepreneur Mohammed Al Sultan. It helps people and small businesses create and run online stores without needing upfront investment. It also connects sellers, suppliers, delivery services, and customers on one platform. The company has already served over 20,000 users and has been growing by about 40%. With the new funding, it plans to improve its systems, expand its team, upgrade technology, and grow its marketing efforts.

Al Jabal Agriculture is another startup that received funding to expand smart farming in Iraq. Founded in 2022 by Mohammed Nabeel Al-Ruwaishdi, it uses technologies like satellite data, GIS mapping, AI, and farm analytics to help farmers improve productivity and make better decisions.

Both startups participated in Orange Corners Baghdad and are currently among the leading ventures supported through the Orange Corners Innovation Fund Iraq, a growth and investment readiness programme implemented by Iraq Venture Partners (IVP).

The investments represent another milestone for Iraq’s startup ecosystem, demonstrating the increasing ability of local founders to attract private investment and build scalable technology solutions that address critical market challenges. They also reflect growing investor interest in sectors beyond traditional technology, including agriculture, commerce, logistics, and digital infrastructure.

As Iraq’s entrepreneurial ecosystem continues to mature, transactions such as these signal a broader shift toward venture-backed innovation and the emergence of a new generation of startups capable of driving economic growth and digital transformation across the country.

The company currently manages and monitors thousands of dunams of farmland across Iraq using technology-based farming systems. It now plans to expand this to more than 100,000 dunams within the next year. It also claims that its solutions have helped clients improve productivity by over 25% and reduce unnecessary farming costs and waste worth more than IQD 600 million.

With the new funding, Al Jabal Agriculture will improve its technology systems, build more advanced AI-based farming tools, and expand its operations to more farming areas across Iraq.

Both startups are part of Orange Corners Baghdad and are supported by the Orange Corners Innovation Fund Iraq, a program run by Iraq Venture Partners (IVV) that helps startups grow and attract investment.

Overall, these investments show that Iraq’s startup ecosystem is growing stronger. More local founders are now able to attract private investors and build scalable tech solutions for real problems. It also shows that investors are increasingly interested not just in traditional tech, but also in areas like agriculture, trade, logistics, and digital infrastructure.

As the startup ecosystem in Iraq continues to grow, deals like these point to a bigger shift toward venture-backed innovation and a new wave of startups helping drive economic growth and digital change in the country.
