Our history

National Foods began its journey in 1970 as a Spice company, with a revolutionary product that popularized the concept of having clean, healthy food. National foods initiatives were, to make food that is hygienic, reduce time spent in the kitchen by women, foster health and contribute towards personal attractiveness, so that people who use our products would be able to experience a more rewarding life-style. This was long before the phrase Corporate Mission had even been invented. However, our founders philosophy remains unchanged over time. Even if their language and the notion of only women doing the housework have become outdated, in this age of rapidly changing lifestyles, fuelled by the rampant development of technology; consumers are compelled to alter their eating habits. National Foods responds to this challenge of developing innovative food products based on convenience and quick preparation in line with modern lifestyles and yet retains traditional values through its diverse collection of food products. In a history that now crosses three decades, National Foods success has been influenced by the major events of the day economic boom, depression, wars, changing consumer lifestyles and technological advancements. Even after three decades the companys focal point still remains on customers needs through product development in line with the changing market trends. Founder pkhilosphy National Foods must focus on customers needs and serve them with quality products at affordable prices at their doorsteps. Our products must be pure and conform to international standards. Our research must continuously produce new adventurous products scientifically tested, hygienically produced in safe and attractive packaging. We must create environment in our offices and factories where talents are groomed and have opportunity to advance in their careers. We must prove to be recognized as good corporate citizens, support good causes-charity and bear fair share of taxes. Reserves must be built, new factories created, sound profits made and fair dividend paid to our stock holders through building a reliable brand. National Foods Ltd. must get itself recognized as leader in Pakistan and abroad. With the help of almighty God, the company can achieve its targets in years to come.

Vision

To be a Rs. 50 billion food company by the year 2020 in the convenience food segment by launching products and services in the domestic and international markets that enhance lifestyle and create value for our customers through management excellence at all levels Core values

We strive for nothing but the best. Execution is the key to winning! Accountability We see. We act. We take full responsibility for our actions and results. We dont blame others for our mistakes; we analyze them and correct them. Ceo msg In this era of fast paced life, execution of business decisions has significantly been impacted through the use of technology. Planning, analysis and strategy developments are now all dependent on the plethora of information available. Correct usage of this information can impact and reward the outcome of business results in the shape of growth, profits, market share and also the brand image and perception a company portrays in the one large global market. Technology has indeed transformed how we think and perform our tasks. Most of all it has unified markets into a global village promoting direct interactions with customers and service providers.

Our brand new website showcases all our categories and brands and in fact offers you an opportunity to directly interact with us. Although we produce branded multi category food items; the complex process of manufacturing, supply chain management, quality assurance, research and development, market research and brand marketing practices are heavily dependent on the extraction and usage of data to make decisions. Our choice of using SAP applications towards enterprise management has helped us reap many awards of excellence. Technology is embedded in how we do business. In the months to come, you will see our website develop and evolve further to cater to all our business stakeholders. We will offer them a direct transactional nature of relationship by linking our ERP SAP applications to help them make informed choices to further our mutual business. The Internet in fact will become the nucleus or the hub around which we shall be carrying out all our business.

The website will become the central hub offering stakeholders and consumers company information and updated knowledge and news, it will provide a direct access to employees to interact through a company intranet, it will become a portal for all our supply chain customers to track their orders and finally a vantage point for all our customers domestically and globally to order our products as an individual user or a business distributor directly without any interaction from us.
