History

In 1957, Esso-Mobil discovered the region’s largest gas reserves[8] within the Mari District.

In 1965, the company was founded as a fertilizer business by an American company Esso on the Mari Gas field near Daharki, Ghotki District, Sindh, with 75% of the shares owned by Esso and 25% by the general public.[9]

The construction of a urea plant commenced at Daharki in 1966 and production began in 1968.[8] At the US $43 million[8] with an annual production capacity of 173,000 tons,[8] it was the single largest foreign investment by a multinational corporation in Pakistan at the time.[8]

Following the global name change of Esso to Exxon, it was decided to rename the company to Exxon Chemical Pakistan in 1978.[10]

In 1991, Exxon divested its fertilizer business on a global basis. The employees of Exxon Chemical Pakistan Limited, in partnership with leading international and local financial institutions, bought out Exxon's 75% equity.[9] Subsequently, the company was renamed as Engro Chemical Pakistan Limited.[9]

In 2010, Engro Chemical Pakistan Limited renamed itself Engro Corporation. Engro also adopted a logo change to reflect a uniform brand identity across its diverse businesses.[6]

Engro Logistics claims to be the safest road Logistics transport service in Pakistan.[13]
