INTRODUCTION TO PACKAGES LIMITED:


Packages Limited is a leading packaging manufacturing company of Pakistan which was

established in 1956. It is the sole largest industry in Pakistan serving about the 35% needs of the

country. Rapid growth of industrial economy is based on different factors and packaging is one

of them. Packages Limited was born out of a dream to set up in Pakistan, industries of excellence

based on local raw material and talent.

Sweden Syed Baber Ali Shah, who was the first managing director of Packages Limited, went

to in 1954 to negotiate the contract with Akerland & Rausing of Sweden. Akerland & Rausing

had been the leading paper converters in Europe. In Pakistan, there was no previous experience

of a packaging industry. Therefore, Pakistanis needed technical collaboration with their Swedish

partners. In the beginning, the first problem was the selection of site. Finally, Lahore was

selected due to the following reasons:

 Easy availability of workers.

 Easy availability of raw material.

 Easy transportation all over the country.

So, Ali family provided the capital, land, labor, management and local experts while their

partners provided technology, machinery, experts and also training to Pakistanis. Syed Baber Ali

was the first Managing Director.

The main industries covered by Packages Limited for packaging are:

 Soap Industry

 Shoe Industry
 Tissue Industry

 Tea Industry

 Tobacco Industry

 Food Industry

 Sweets & Confectioneries

 Since 1957, Packages has been producing inks for its own consumption. In 1993, the

Company agreed to form a joint venture with equity participation from Coates

Lorilleux, world’s second largest printing ink manufacturer to produce inks for Packages

Limited and the general market.

 Also in 1993, a joint venture agreement was signed with “Mitsubishi Corporation of

Japan” for the manufacture of polypropylene films at the industrial estate in Hattar,

NWFP. The name of this project was Tri-Pack Films Limited.

 In 1996, a joint venture agreement was signed with Print care (Ceylon) Limited for the

production of flexible packaging in Sri Lanka.

 Another important service department of the Packages Limited is its “Power Plant”. In

1967 they set up 6 MW power plants, but to ensure a continuous and dependable supply

of power for its production lines.

 In the field of consumer products, Packages Limited has shown tremendous potential and

commendable talent. One of the consumer products of the company are “Rose Petal”
