Serving the world through quality

The creation of Gani & Tayub (Pvt.) Limited takes us back to the year 1947, when the families of late Haji
Gani Diwan and Tayub Usman Bilwani migrated to Pakistan from Bantwa, India.

In India, they operated their business as general commodity merchants in the cities of Bombay, Cochin,
Hindupur, Madras and Bagalkot.

After the partition of India, on arrival in Pakistan, these two families declared their marger and formed two
main trading firms by the name of R. H. Gani and Habib Cloth House.

Later in 1955, after an era of mutual collaboration the decided to incorporate Gani & Tayub as a private limited
company.

Gani & Tayub (Pvt.) Ltd. became one fo Pakistan’s leading importers of synthetic yarn, fabrics, chemicals,
dyes, cement, textiles, PVC resin, plastic molding compounds and sugar.

Gani & Tayub (G&T) diversified into various fields and a number of companies were established in the
manufacturing sector.

More than five decades of operational excellence, experience ad expertise have all formed a combined
strength to empower the group as the pioneer in synthetic textiles in Pakistan. Over 6,500 employees
represent a skilled , trained and professionally dedicated work force in all its group companies.

The group realizes the importance of customer relationship and strives to deliver products employing
sophisticated technological facilities. The group continuously works for evolving innovative business strategies
with an eye on expansion.

“Trust & Reliability” is the core theme in all the group companies. In its more than 50 year history, not a single
company of the group has ever delayed its loan or credit installment payment, even by just one day.

MUSTAQIM’s Commitment & Initiatives

“REACH” is a European Regulation introduced by EEC in order to regularize the existence of all available chemical
substances within Europe, which are used in all the products; either made in Europe or being imported in Europe from
outside. Precisely, “REACH” ensures that each chemical substance; that is as low as 0.1% of the total size of the
product; is totally environmental and health friendly. Henceforth, all harmful and hazardous chemicals for health and
environment are to be registered so that the control could be made effectively.

Mustaqim is pleased to announce that as a Reliable and an Environmental Friendly and a Fully Social Compliant

are completely free of any SVHC (Substance of Very High Concern). As per the basic REACH protocols, Mustaqim;
having their manufacturing facilities situated out-side European Countries, can not get registered with REACH,
however, Mustaqim still has to ensure that all chemical substances which are used for all EEC customers are
completely free of SVHC, as listed in the following controlled list by ECHA (European Chemical Agency).

http://echa.europa.eu/chem_data/authorisation_process/candidate_list_table_en.asp

Mustaqim is pleased to announce that as of now; all it’s products are Completely Free of all SVHC, as listed &
