The CEO of Koc, while announcing this, said, “Consolidating the vision of our group, Arçelik has made a significant investment in Pakistan in line with its global growth strategy. I believe this investment will further strengthen Turkey-Pakistan economic ties. Through the incorporation of Dawlance into our group, we will gain a strong and strategic foothold in Pakistan, a promising economy.”

The reasons for acquisition still remain untold but it has been reported that the owner of Dawlance wanted to permanently move abroad and that the company was up for auction since last 5 years.

Major shares of Dawlance are owned by Bashir Dawood who is the brother-in-law of Hussain Dawood, the owner of Dawood Group. Dawood Group has major share presence in HUBCO, Engro and Dawood Hercules groups.
