ISLAMABAD: Almoiz Group, having five sugar mills, has set up two sales points in Islamabad to retail sugar at the subsidized rate of Rs 70 per kg to facilitate the general public. This follows from the setting up of over 50 such stalls earlier in several cities, including D I Khan, Mianwali, Layyah, Chiniot and Okara.
After these successful openings, the Group has also started extending outlets into the big cities like Peshawar, Islamabad and Rawalpindi, so that even more people can benefit.
