A group of business owners from the platform of American Business Forum (ABF) visited the office of Punjab Board of Investment & Trade (PBIT) and held meeting with senior officials. American Business Forum formed in 2008, is an organisation consisting of US based companies and franchises.
Talking to the Vice Chairman PBIT Dr Miftah Ismail, President of American Business Forum, Saleem Ghauri discussed various avenues of business in Punjab for the American firms. He said that currently there exists over USD 1 billion of investment made by American based firms in Pakistan.
He said that existing businesses would witness expansion and new business could happily be invested in Pakistan provided our negative image is somehow mitigated on the national level and the right picture of Pakistan is reached to the people by utilising the power of international media. Vice-chairman PBIT, Dr Miftah Ismail at this occasion assured assistance of PBIT to ABF and their member companies and encouraged expansion of their existing investment in Punjab and discussed ways to attract new investment from USA in Punjab.
