Founded as The Shafi Group of Pakistan' in the 1940's when Late Mian Muhammad Shafi was engaged in trading of Hides & Skins along with his elder sons, Mian Muhammad Siddiq and Mian Abdul Hafeez. With the help of the almighty Allah and their hard work, this small trading house grew to become one of the pioneers of the tanning industry in Pakistan. The family that started business as a local merchant became a self-reliant & diversified industry leader in the leather sector of the country and earned a first class reputation in quality & reliability in the leather trade around the world to a level where the Shafi Group was adjudge as one of the top 20 most important & influential tanners in the world by the Leather International Magazine. With the expansion of business, the Shafi family also grew with time, and by the end of the year 2008, had 36 family members (Direct Descendants of Mian Muhammad Shafi) working in the group businesses. This is when, driven by the vision and focus on the needs of today & tomorrow and to further ensure future growth the group restructured in 2009.
