Founder of Ah_Shock International Iraq

Mr. Raad Kamel Al-Maliki

About the Founder:

Mr. Raad Kamel Al-Maliki began his career in the world of commerce in 2002, taking his first steps with confidence and ambition in the local Iraqi market. Over time, he accumulated valuable experience and developed practical skills that enabled him to establish his first company in Iraq in 2018 — a milestone that marked the true beginning of his journey toward regional and international expansion.

In 2021, he moved to Turkey, where he founded a new branch of Al-Shawk Global. He then took a remarkable step forward by launching his own manufacturing facilities, significantly boosting the company’s production capabilities and expanding its operations. Just one year later, in 2022, he established a new branch in Germany under the name Ah_Shock International Germany, positioning the company for strategic growth in the European market.

Continuing his expansion efforts, Mr. Al-Maliki opened another branch in Kuwait, focusing on building a strong and efficient network among the group’s various branches and subsidiaries. His aim has always been to foster synergy, share expertise, and ensure smooth collaboration across different markets.

With a flexible and ambitious vision for both business and industry, Mr. Al-Maliki has become a respected figure in regional entrepreneurship — a role model whose story inspires others across the Middle East and beyond.

Thanks to his deep passion for excellence and quality, Mr. Raad Al-Maliki founded the company with a clear vision: to offer top-quality products that reflect both authenticity and modern innovation.

Mr. Al-Maliki began his professional journey in the fields of industry and commerce over 23 years ago, during which he built a wealth of experience that has made him one of the leading experts in his field. His passion for innovation inspired him to create products that bring together traditional taste and contemporary flair — with Turkish tea becoming one of the standout results of that vision.

Vision

Mr. Raad Al-Maliki envisions delivering a unique product that elevates the traditional tea experience to entirely new levels. To him, quality isn't just about premium ingredients — it’s also about ongoing engagement with customers and meeting their evolving needs. His deep passion for the authentic flavor of Turkish tea led him to craft a variety of unique blends that set our brand apart in the market.

The Road to Success

The company was founded in 2018 and, like many great ventures, faced significant challenges in its early days — from finding reliable suppliers to ensuring product quality at every stage of the production process. But thanks to Mr. Al-Maliki’s determination and clear vision, we overcame those challenges and successfully entered both local and international markets.

Today, the founder continues to push the company forward by exploring new flavors and expanding into new markets. He believes that every product we offer reflects his personal attention to detail and his commitment to delivering exceptional quality.

At the same time, he places great importance on sustainability, ensuring that our production processes use environmentally friendly resources. This commitment means that every product we create carries a mark of social and environmental responsibility.

The Founder’s Commitment

Mr. Al-Maliki's commitment extends far beyond product development — it touches every part of the customer experience, from packaging to service. He believes that real success isn’t just measured in numbers, but in the human connections we build with our customers and the trust we earn over time.

Our Future Vision

Mr. Raad Al-Maliki remains focused on transforming the company into a globally recognized brand, while staying true to the core values of quality and innovation. Alongside the introduction of new products, he is also working toward entering new markets around the world — with the goal of bringing our unique offerings to every corner of the globe.
