century ago, when a highly dynamic personality of Sir
Syed Maratib Ali expanded his agri business into trading
and industrial partnerships. Soon after independence of
Pakistan in 1947, the business activities were further
diversified into industrialized operations of soap, ghee
and razor manufacturing sectors.
