A modest beginning was made in the year 1921 by our founder
Mulla Ebrahimji Karimbhoy (MEK) in Karachi. Our initial products
included Steel Trunks, Paper Trays, Dak (mail) Boxes, Envelope
Racks, Ice Boxes, Jewellery Boxes and other items made of
steel for business and home uses. After Independence of Pakistan,
we expanded our production facilities by inducting the then
modern |
Steel Bending and Cutting machines from United Kingdom
and started the manufacture of Steel Furniture, which included
Steel Almirahs (Cup Boards) Steel Filing Cabinets, Hospital
Beds, and Storage Racks etc.
Our Most successful product of the time was the Kitchen Almirahs,
which had been designed and prepared keeping in view our traditional
Eastern cuisine and culture of our homes.

In the late 1950s, upon
the retirement of Mulla Ebrahimji Karimbhoy, the reigns of
MEK were taken over by Mr. Mohsin s/o Mulla Ebrahimji Karimbhoy,
Pakistan was also on the road to rapid industrial and economic
development. A large no of industrial units were being set
up all over the country. Banking and other financial institutions
were being established. To meet the growing |
|
| demand of Steel
Furniture of the time, there was not enough production capacity
in Pakistan and therefore, a lot of items were imported from
India, UK and Germany.
This growth provided us with an opportunity to further expand
our production capacity and undertake manufacture of Steel
Equipment and Furniture essentially required by the Financial
and Banking sectors i e Filing Cabinets, Cash Security Deposit
Lockers, Fire Proof Almirahs, Fire Proof Safes, Storage Racks
and Strong Room Doors. This growth provided |

OUR PRODUCTS RANGE
|
 |
MEK became the first Pakistani
producer to undertake the large-scale manufacture of the above-required
items meeting the highest international quality standards.
Many of our clients were multi-nationals banks and companies
who reposed full confidence in our capabilities and quality
products by renewing their contracts. 1981 saw the sad departure
of Mr. Mohsin. Separation of |
|
East Pakistan
and the nationalization
of Banking, Financial and Industrial sector had caused immense
setbacks. The third generation, took over under the most trying
conditions. MEK had managed to survive but needed BMR.
This was the era of mass production and mechanization. Procurement,
Production and Sales strategies were developed. New machines
were added and major shift was made away from manual production
to presses and dies. MEK today is one of most modern and quality
conscience manufacturer of Steel Furniture. Our products not
only satisfy the demands of the local market but also cater
to the very competitive export market.
