History

Hashoo Group was established in 1960 as Hassan Ali & Company, a commodities trading company based in Karachi Port. By the 1970s, it had become one of Pakistan's largest trading companies. However, in 1972, the Government of Pakistan nationalized cotton and rice exports leading the Hashoo Group to diversify into the hospitality sector. In 1978, the group established Holiday Inn Hotel in Karachi, and then another one in Islamabad in 1981. Both of the hotels were converted into Marriott brand in the 1990s. In 1985, the group made a successful bid for the majority shares of Pakistan Services Limited, which then owned four Inter-Continental Hotels across Pakistan, the hotels were re-branded into Pearl-Continental Hotels.[2]

In 1995, Hashoo Group acquired the US-based corporation Occidental Petroleum's Pakistan operations (now known as Orient Petroleum Inc.). In 2001, it acquired the Destinations of the World franchise in Pakistan. In 2012, the group launched Hotel One, a mid-range hotel chain in Pakistan.[3]

In October 2013, Tullow Pakistan exited the Pakistani market and sold its assets to Ocean Pakistan Limited, a subsidiary of the Hashoo Group.[4]

In March 2016, BHP Billiton sold its Pakistani oil and gas operations to Hashoo Group.[5] In 2016, Murtaza Hashwani, Chairman of Hashoo Foundation, and Deputy Chairman of Hashoo Group took the string of the company on his own hand and lead the legacy of his father further.[6]

In 2019, Hashoo Group won 3 CSR awards “Best CSR Practices”, “Women Welfare Empowerment & Development”, and “Education & Scholarships” at 11th Corporate Social Responsibility Awards 2019 for the social development works received by Murtaza Hashwani, Deputy Chairman of Hashoo Group.[7]
