Mr. Faisal Hussain

He holds a “Master of Business Administration” Degree from respected Institute of Business Administration (IBA) and a “Master Of Finance” Degree from Cardiff Business School, University of Wales, UK. He decided to enter the meat industry in 2010, knowing that he has an edge over all other players in the market due to his previous experience in the Meat Offal Industry.
He is the pioneer of contemporary trends in the Pakistani meat industry by adding value to the exporting of raw fresh meat only to Middle Eastern countries. He brought new concepts into the industry, further adding value by offering boneless frozen and vacuum packed beef and mutton meat along with the tremendous increase in export of offal to Far Eastern economies.
It was under his leadership that TOMCL achieved being the only company in South East Asia to have approvals of export to so many destinations including Iran, Iraq, The Maldives and Malaysia. His idea of extending the shelf life of Pakistani beef and mutton meat resulted in the opening of markets like Azerbaijan and Iran for Pakistan.
The same experience and vision has led TOMCL to be the only entity in the Pakistan’s meat industry to process and export the beef offal. They have developed an increasingly growing market in the last five years due to his direct access for years with various offal suppliers and processors globally. He has taken a single product meat industry which used to export only meat carcasses before the entry of TOMCL, to a multi-product industry.
