Therefore, it is necessary to research this field due to the absence of a clear strategy to advance the reality of food industries in Iraq and its governorate.

Karbala in particular, and when we study the economic reality of the food industries in Iraq and the Karbala governorate for sharpness from 2014-2020 by analyzing the numbers of these industries and knowing their relative importance within the manufacturing industries, we found that there is an increase in the relative importance of the large-sized food industries within the large manufacturing industries throughout Iraq during the research period 2014-2020 With a small decrease in the percentage of 2020, the study also showed a small increase in large-sized food industrial establishments in the Karbala governorate during the study period, and this is through the stability of their relative importance compared to large-sized food industries throughout Iraq, reaching in two years (2016, 2015) (5.7%).
