History
Ismail Industries' history goes back to a confectionery factory founded by Haji Ahmad Chandia in Sukkur during the 1960s.[5] The business was unsuccessful, so the factory was closed in 1964.[5] Later, Chandia founded another confectionery business with his four sons called Union Biscuit Private Limited in Karachi.[5] The business was successful, but began to decline with the death of the heir apparent, Muhammad Ismail.[5] Following his death, the family reestablished a company in his name called Ismail Industries Limited in 1988.[5] The company was listed on the Karachi Stock Exchange in 1989.[5] Miftah Ismail, former Finance Minister of Pakistan, joined his family business in 1994 after completing his education in the U.S.[5]
In 1990, Ismail Industries established its first subsidiary, Candyland, which introduced soft jellies such as Chilli Milli in Pakistan.[6] Candyland is also for producing Fanty, Super Twister, and Paradise.[6]
In 2002, Ismail Industries founded Bisconni which later became known for its Cocomo biscuit.[6] Bisconni is also known for launching Rite cookies.[6]
In 2006, SnackCity was launched to make snack foods in Pakistan.[6] SnackCity is known for producing Kurleez, a line of crisp snacks.[6]
In 2013, Ismail Industries acquired 24.5 percent stake in the Bank of Khyber.[7]
In 2021, Ismail Industries established a polyester resin (PET resin) manufacturing plant with an annual production capacity of 108,000 tons.[6]
