Who are we?
Our company, S&H BUSINESS CONSULTANTS , offers our services specifically to French companies wishing to explore business opportunities in Pakistan.
Demography
With a very dynamic population (35.1% under 15, 245 million inhabitants by 2030), Pakistan has already seen the emergence of a large middle class.
Many sectors, some of which are already very dynamic (telecommunications and banking in particular), harbor significant potential given the country's development needs: energy, water, waste management, transport, food processing, and consumer goods.
Security
The security situation, which previously weighed on the decisions of French companies concerning Pakistan, has improved markedly.
What is more, the Pakistani authorities have managed to maintain an attractive investment regime: full convertibility of the rupee, free repatriation of profits, and dividends.
Trade
At the bilateral level, trade between France and Pakistan amounted to EUR 1.31 billion in 2019. Pakistan is France's second-largest client in South Asia. France mainly exports pharmaceutical specialties, engines and turbines, and dairy and cheese products.
But many opportunities exist in other sectors: beauty products, childcare, tableware, kitchen equipment, ingredients for the food industry, animal health, equipment for dairy farming, etc.
-
Brand Image
European products enjoy a good brand image in Pakistan. The price disadvantage compared to products from South East Asia can be largely offset by a reputation for quality.
-
Reliable and Efficient
For both consumer goods and capital goods, the presence of a reliable and efficient relay on the spot is necessary to position oneself on the Pakistani market.
-
Regular monitoring
For public contracts (infrastructure, railways, energy, hydrocarbons), Regular monitoring of calls for tenders issued by state bodies is imperative.
-
Decision-making
Do not let yourself be influenced solely by the press and media for any Decision-making relating to the prospecting of opportunities in Pakistan. Instead, contact us or the Economic Department of the French Embassy for real-time updates.
-
Secure and Safe
Terrorism in Pakistan is confined to specific areas. Major Pakistani cities such as Karachi, Lahore and Islamabad are very safe. Therefore, you should not hesitate to travel to Pakistan
