Usman Zaheer Ahmad, former CEO of Fauji Foods, was appointed CEO in September 2026 and joins on November 16, 2026, succeeding Kashan Hasan.

Engro Corporation, the Pakistani industrial group behind fertilizer and energy businesses, founded Engro Foods in 2005 to enter the consumer packaged goods market. The company built its first processing plant in Sukkur, Sindh, and launched Olper's UHT milk in 2006. Olper's grew rapidly into Pakistan's leading packaged milk brand, helping shift consumption from loose raw milk to branded processed dairy.

Tarang, a tea whitener, followed in 2007 and the Omore frozen dessert brand launched in 2009, giving Engro Foods three national consumer brands within four years. The company listed on the Karachi Stock Exchange and added a second plant in Sahiwal, Punjab, to expand production closer to Pakistan's largest milk shed.

In 2016 Royal FrieslandCampina, the Dutch cooperative behind Friesche Vlag, Friso and Dutch Lady brands, bought a majority stake for about $450 million. The deal gave Engro Foods access to FrieslandCampina's dairy research, quality systems and farmer development programs. Minority shares continue to trade on the Pakistan Stock Exchange. The company renamed itself FrieslandCampina Engro Pakistan in May 2019 to reflect the new ownership.

Under FrieslandCampina ownership the company invested in cold chain expansion, farmer training programs covering tens of thousands of dairy farmers, and product extensions including Dairy Omung and flavored milk lines. Leadership changed in late 2026, when CEO Kashan Hasan resigned and the board appointed Usman Zaheer Ahmad, formerly CEO of Fauji Foods, effective November 16, 2026.

The company runs dairy development programs that have trained tens of thousands of smallholder farmers, including more than 41,000 women farmers, in animal health, feeding and milk quality practices. As part of the FrieslandCampina cooperative system it reports into the group's global sustainability framework covering farm-level emissions, water use and food safety standards across its collection network.

Like other packaged dairy producers in Pakistan, FCEPL operates under periodic regulatory scrutiny from provincial food authorities over quality standards and labeling, and the broader packaged milk industry faces recurring public debate over pricing during inflationary periods. No major safety recalls have been publicly recorded against the company's brands in recent years.
