OUR STORY

Our journey began in Iraq. What started in 1968 as a family-owned vehicle trading company in Baghdad has grown into one of the largest automotive companies in the country, with 9 branches across Iraq — including 2 service and spare-parts centres — and 7 car showrooms spanning Baghdad, Erbil and Mosul.

In Iraq we are the exclusive agents for Dongfeng and Forthing, the authorized distributor for General Motors, and the exclusive distributor for ROX Motors. We operate the largest car company warehouses in the country, backed by service and parts centres in every province from the north to the south — because Laith Al-Obaidi Motors is synonymous with luxury.
