HISTORY OF IZAT AFGHAN
A story of optimism & resilience in the face of war!
With a glorious history of 30 years, Izat Afghan started its business when Afghanistan was surrounded by civil war and unrest. Infrastructure was destroyed, food was scarce, Afghans were starving, and there was an urgent need for dairy. When other businesses collapsed in Afghanistan, Izat Afghan Ltd was the first source to introduce tetra-packed dairy products in a war-torn Afghanistan.
When roads were destroyed by the violent attacks and food transportation was almost impossible, we used camels to transport the products across the border. Amid chaos and turmoil, our company took the responsibility to deliver the best quality and healthy food products to our customers, meeting the basic food needs.
Where others were fretting about instability, Izat Afghan created an opportunity!
Since then, Izat Afghan has never looked back and has continued to emerge as one of Afghanistan’s most valuable and efficient food distribution networks. Food products we distribute include dairy, beverages, and pasta products. Along the way, our company has partnered with some of the well-known companies in Pakistan like Shakarganj, Bake Parlour, EBM, Tapal, Maaza international, Shaan Foods, and Shangrila.
In 2015, Izat Afghan launched a highly competitive clothing line in Islamabad, Pakistan known as KARBAS and has recently started manufacturing pasta, nimko, and many different kinds of snacks under the brand label – Izzat.
With sheer dedication, Izat Afghan has already earned the reputation of distributing first-class food products in Afghanistan’s food market and providing outstanding attires in Pakistan’s fashion industry.
Besides a thousand negative things said about Afghanistan, Nobody can deny our pasta’s taste and our food products’ quality!
Equipped with cutting-edge technology and innovative state-of-the-art Italian machinery, our pasta manufacturing unit covers an area of 10,000 square meters. Maintaining quality standards in food production enforced by Europe and other global markets was no easy task amid Afghanistan’s chaos. However, our ambitious team management has managed to beat all challenges, and our products meet all the international standards of production quality.
Standards to Maintain!
Izat Afghan has maintained the highest design standards, rich taste, affordability, and premium quality while manufacturing our long cut and short cut pasta macaroni.
Where we started… A humble shoe-polish formulation set up in the backyard of our home.The year was 1999 when two brothers planted a little seed of hope and success that came back to them in abundance. They started working on their idea of making shoe polish with as limited equipment and scope as using a bowl in the backyard of their home. With sheer hard work and dedication, they were able to formulate an affordable and high-quality product.
Soon the product grabbed customers’ attention for its premium quality, and the demand rose from 1 bottle to 20,000 bottles per day. To meet the exceeding demand, the company gradually increased the supply and expanded its product line to snacks and jams.
However, this was just the beginning…
Our distribution history goes back to 1992 when Izat Afghan Ltd started transporting and distributing dairy products from across the border to war struck and malnourished Afghans.
Slowly and gradually, the company broadened its distribution network by partnering with many famous brands to distribute quality food products in Afghanistan as a sole distributor.
We distributed products from top-notch brands in the past, including Bake Parlor, EBM, Maaza International, Tapal & Shangrila. Our current distributor partners include Shakarganj and Shan foods, and products we distribute include dairy products and spices.
With the most extensive distribution network, Izat Afghan is actively operating in Afghanistan!
