Our story

Built across generations.
Designed for what comes next.

A family enterprise shaped by patient growth, practical ambition and an enduring commitment to the essentials people rely on.

RK Group’s roots reach back to 1953, when a family enterprise began in the sugar trade. Sheikh Abdul Islam joined the business in 1965 and expanded into wheat and ghee, laying the foundation for a diversified group serving essential sectors of Pakistan’s economy.

From ACP Oil Mills in 1989 and Al-Khalid Flour Mills in 1996 to a wider portfolio of food, edible-oil, manufacturing, energy and infrastructure businesses, the Group has grown through practical ambition and long-term thinking.
