GO Sport Expands into Iraq

International sports retailer GO Sport has announced its expansion into Iraq.

Tom Foley, CEO of GO Sport, is quoted as saying:

"We are thrilled to bring GO Sport's unique retail experience to Iraq ... This new expansion in Baghdad is just the beginning of our journey in Iraq, and we look forward to expanding our presence further."

Located in the heart of Baghdad, this new branch will offer a wide range of high-quality men's, women's, and children's apparel, footwear, and accessories across various sports categories including running, training, football, swimming, rackets, and lifestyle, according to a press release from the company.

The expansion plans into Iraq are made possible through a franchise agreement between Al Mana -- the Qatari-based owner of GO Sport -- and International Venture Investment Holding (IVI Holding).
