Mian Mohammad Mansha, often referred to as the ‘Mukesh Ambani of Pakistan,’ is a leading Pakistani businessman and philanthropist. Born in India in 1941, he moved to Pakistan during the 1947 partition and rose to prominence as the country’s first billionaire. With a net worth estimated at around 5 billion dollars, Mansha heads a diversified business group named Nishat Group, which is Pakistan’s largest exporter of cotton clothes and the country’s largest private employer. His business interests span textiles, power projects, cement, insurance, banking, and more.
Mansha is also known for his extensive philanthropic activities. He recently donated a substantial sum of Rs 6900000 to the Prime Minister’s Flood Relief Fund. He serves on the boards of various prominent institutions in Pakistan and has been recognized for his contributions with the prestigious Sitara-e-Imtiaz civil award.
Mansha’s business acumen and entrepreneurial spirit have been instrumental in shaping Pakistan’s economic landscape. He has played a significant role in promoting mass market products and localization, similar to the approach adopted by India’s richest man, Mukesh Ambani. Mansha’s business empire is a testament to his vision, hard work, and dedication, making him a respected figure in Pakistan’s business community.
