Our Story

A legacy, reborn

Founded in Muridke in the 1950s, Zafar Rice Mill was the first in Pakistan to run automated rice shellers — commissioned alongside a team of foreign engineers whose visit the family recorded on film.

Nationalized in the 1970s and carried on without us for decades, the mill is now back in the family's hands, with an Australian joint venture and a global export vision.

The mill courtyard at Muridke, heavy stone rollers resting against the brick wall. Men gathered outside a two-storey house with a columned veranda; a bicycle leans by the steps. A multi-storey milling tower of riveted steel and timber staging, under the trusses of a shed roof.
