MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIRMAN:
Assalamu Alaikum,
It is indeed a great pleasure and honor for me to welcome you at Alif Industries Ltd. (Previous LK Unitex ) It is also a great privilege for me to place before you overview of the company.
Last year (2019-20) was very remarkable year for business. GDP growth was over 7% – a very remarkable progress for the country. Inflation was well managed under 6%. All other economic indicators indicated that the country is in continuous good pace. On the other hand, country’s political condition was very stable during that period. As a result, country’s business operations were directly benefitted from such good economic and stable political condition. I expect, such a remarkable progress of the country as well as the business environment will also continue in the upcoming years.
I sincerely believe that good governance is very vital for success and improvement for the company. I also glad to report that the company has an audit committee which regularly reviews the financial transaction. The management is fully aware of risk factors of the economy and the industry as well and takes measures to address risk. The company has also internal financial control system that gives reasonable measures to the Board of Directors for their guidance.
Finally, I would like to take the opportunity on behalf of Board of Directors and express my deepest appreciation to all our valued shareholder, customers, and clients, well-wishers for their heartiest support and interest for the betterment of the company. I sincerely hope that the same support would continue in the future to come.
