KARACHI: Waheed Ahmed, Patron-in-Chief of the All Pakistan Fruit & Vegetable Exporters, Importers & Merchants Association (PFVA), has announced the Association’s full support for the Businessmen Group (BMG) in the Karachi Chamber of Commerce & Industry (KCCI) Elections 2026–28.
Waheed Ahmed said that PFVA strongly supports its Chairman, Aslam, who is contesting the KCCI elections as an Executive Committee Member and has also been nominated for the position of Senior Vice President of KCCI.
He said that Aslam’s nomination is a matter of pride for PFVA and Pakistan’s fruit and vegetable export sector, as it will further strengthen the representation of exporters, importers and merchants at one of the country’s most important chambers of commerce.
“Pakistan’s export sector needs a strong and effective voice at key business forums. Representation at KCCI will provide an important platform to highlight issues related to export growth, trade facilitation, taxation, logistics, ease of doing business and access to international markets,” Ahmed said.
He added that PFVA extends its support to the BMG panel in both the Corporate and Associate Classes, bearing Serial Numbers 1 to 15, and called upon members of Karachi’s business, trade and industrial community to actively participate in the KCCI Elections being held on 26th September 2026.
Ahmed expressed confidence that closer coordination between KCCI, PFVA and other export-oriented sectors would help address challenges faced by the business community, strengthen exports and contribute to Pakistan’s economic growth.
