Makka Groups moves global FMCG brands across Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and the capital region, trades internationally from Dubai, and builds residential projects in DHA Peshawar.
A group that built capacity first, territory second.
Makka Groups traces back to a pharmaceutical distribution business the family started in Peshawar in 2000; Makka Agency, its FMCG distributor, followed in 2006. Twenty-six years on, it's six businesses — four in distribution and trade, one in real estate, one retail network in build — still family-owned, family-run, with no outside capital.
Growth has followed one rule: capacity first, territory second. Warehousing, cold storage and fleet are built ahead of the volume that will use them — the reason multinational principals like Unilever, FrieslandCampina Engro, PepsiCo and National Foods onboard without a service gap, all served from infrastructure the group owns outright.
The same discipline moved the group into construction. Makkah Estate builds inside DHA Peshawar's approval framework, on a single turnkey contract from plot survey to handover. In 2022 the group licensed Muzakkah General Trading LLC in Dubai, adding a re-export base with direct access to Gulf and Far East suppliers.
“Whose vision and aspiration of serving the nation through utmost humanity and honesty continues to be the driving force behind all our endeavors.”
The group
Six businesses, one route.
Four distribution and trading companies, one developer and one retail network in build — running on shared warehousing, a shared fleet and one order-to-delivery system. A principal appointing us in Peshawar and Islamabad gets one reporting format, not two.
Two people have run this group since it was one agency.
Mr Atif Shehzad
CEO
Atif Shehzad has led Makka Groups since its founding, growing a single Peshawar agency into six businesses across two countries. He sets partnership strategy and holds the group's relationships with its multinational principals — long-horizon: capacity built before it's needed, territory entered only once it can be serviced properly.
Shakir Shehzad directs the group's warehousing, fleet and field operations, including the Hayatabad Industrial Estate facility anchoring distribution across Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. He built its computerised order-to-delivery system and oversees food, dairy, poultry and packaging — day-to-day service reliability is his remit.
Every enquiry lands with the company that runs the territory, and all four report in the same format.
