During a visit to PIDC, Special Assistant to the Prime Minister on Industries and Production, Mr. Haroon Akhtar Khan, was briefed by the Corporation’s CEO on its performance, ongoing projects, and future plans, said a press release issued today.

The meeting reviewed major developments, including the Master Plan of Karachi Industrial Park, the land lease policy for Bin Qasim Industrial Park, and the establishment of a customs bonded warehouse.
