Barkat Frisian Agro Limited has moved closer to scaling up operations, completing the trial run of its Faisalabad plant while pushing ahead with new production and backward integration initiatives.
The company disclosed the development in a notice to the Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX) on Tuesday.
“The company is pleased to inform that the trial run of its newly established production facility located at Faisalabad has been completed,” read the notice.
The facility has been established as part of the company’s expansion plan and is intended to enhance the company’s production capacity to meet the growing demand for pasteurised egg products in both local and export markets.
“Following the successful completion of the trial run, the company expects to commence commercial operations at the facility with full commercial production anticipated from the beginning of the next month,” it said, adding that the project timelines remain in line with those disclosed in the prospectus issued at the time of the company’s IPO.
Regarding the establishment of a dried egg powder production facility, Barkat Frisian Agro informed that orders for the required plant and equipment have been placed, and the necessary Letters of Credit (LCs) have been established.
“Construction activities for the facility have also commenced, and the project is progressing as planned,” it said.
Moreover, regarding the backward integration initiative through poultry layer farming, the company informed that the required land has been acquired, orders for the necessary plant and related equipment have been placed, the relevant LCs have been established, and construction of the farming infrastructure has commenced.
“These initiatives form part of the company’s broader strategy to strengthen supply chain integration, enhance operational efficiency, and support sustainable long-term growth,” it added.
Barkat Frisian Agro Limited was incorporated in Pakistan as a private limited company in 2017. It was previously known as Barkat Frisian Pasteurized Egg Company.
The company converted into a public unlisted company in December 2024, while the listing of its shares on the PSX was held in March 2025. The company is engaged in poultry egg processing.
