What Stallions does
Al Khuyol Advertising Company (branded as Stallions / Al Khuyol / الخيول) is a private outdoor advertising firm headquartered in Erbil, Kurdistan Region of Iraq, operating since 2011. The company rents physical advertising surfaces — specifically billboards (133 locations), LED digital screens (20 locations), and street furniture/lamppost installations (84 locations) — to brands and government entities across 8 Iraqi provinces: Erbil, Mosul, Kirkuk, Tikrit, Diyala, Baghdad, Najaf, and Anbar. Its roster spans international consumer brands (Rolex, Armani, Samsung, Pepsi, 7UP, Lexus, Jeep, Nissan, Burger King, Talabat, Toters), Iraq's mobile network operators (Asiacell, Zain, Korek), municipalities, the Kurdistan Regional Government, and Iraqi businesses in real estate, healthcare, education, and F&B.
The company's technical footprint is largely physical-asset-based: standard-format billboards (5m x 2.5m and 9 other dimensions), LED displays capable of rotating content, and bus shelters/lamppost formats (1.4m x 2m). The digital layer is limited to a catalog and interactive map at alkhuyol.com that browses the 200+ locations but does not provide programmatic booking, audience analytics, or AI-driven optimization. The website was built by Mesopo Agency as a web vendor.
The business model is sales-led and transaction-based: quote-based pricing per campaign with multi-year contract cadences, no public pricing, no modular add-ons, and no reseller or channel partner network. Distribution is direct via website inquiry forms, WhatsApp, phone, and email, with a 24-hour response commitment and a dedicated account manager. Revenue is generated through rental of advertising space for fixed campaign durations. The company reports 1-10 employees, no disclosed funding, no parent company, and no institutional investment.

Stallions competitors and assessment
Company assessmentBroad incumbents
- Lamar Advertising: Major US-based billboard and OOH operator with deep inventory of static and digital surfaces. Comparable business model of owning and operating large billboard networks for international brand campaigns, though geographically US-focused.
- Clear Channel Outdoor: One of the world's largest OOH media companies, operating billboards and digital displays across international markets. Comparable as a large-scale static-and-digital billboard operator with multinational brand relationships; while Al Khuyol is Iraq-specific, both target the same international brand advertisers and compete for premium location contracts.

Comparable business model of owning/operating large billboard portfolios for international brand campaigns; though US-focused, both compete for the same global brand advertising relationships.
