Mr. Simon Penney, His Majesty's Trade Commissioner for the Middle East, and Mr. James Gallagher, Director at the United Kingdom's Department of International Trade in Iraq , were warmly hosted by Al Handal International Group during their visit to 650 in Baghdad. Al Handal International Group, represented by Mr. Wadeea Al Handal, Chairman, and Mr. Adnan Shaker Mahmood, Head of Hospitality, graciously welcomed the distinguished visitors. 650 holds the distinction of being the first restaurant in Iraq to offer locally grown organicfood. The purpose of the visit was to strengthen economic relations between the two countries.

Stepping into the walls of 650, one is immersed in a tapestry of cherished memories, including the vintage skiing panels from the 1980s. These panels serve as a nostalgic emblem of belonging and historical fusion within this modern venue.

We express our heartfelt appreciation for the support provided by the UnitedKingdom government through the Department of International Trade in Iraq. At Al Handal International Group, we eagerly anticipate further collaboration and cooperation in the near future.
