About Us:

Ismail Industries Ltd. was incorporated as a public limited company in 1989. The company manufactures high quality confectionery products under the brand name CANDYLAND. In 2002, we acquired a biscuit company from IBL (Meiji) and expanded our portfolio into biscuits under the brand name BISCONNI. With increasing competition from small-scale manufacturers, in 2003 we launched FIRST, another confectionery company, to cater to lower priced segment. Recently, Ismail Industries Limited has pursued a strategy of backward integration and portfolio diversification with the establishment of ASTRO PACK, a unit for manufacturing of Cast Polypropylene.

We have state-of-the-art factories and the most sophisticated process technology in Pakistan. We recognize the importance of efficiency and creativity to achieve growth in a competitive environment.

We believe that our people are the reason for our success. We therefore continue to recruit, train and retain the best professionals in the field. We employ more food technologists than any other confectionery company in Pakistan and have an extremely modern laboratory capable of developing innovative products and testing products and ingredients for quality and consistency. We pride ourselves as an equal opportunity employer and have a diverse team playing their roles in various capacities.

We realize our responsibility towards society and contribute to our environment as good corporate citizens. We have also achieved ISO 9001-2000 certification benchmark. Our plans include a complete HACCP audit of our plants before end of 2005.
