The Kashmirwala Group Pakistan was founded by Haji Fazal Ahmed Kashmirwala in 1947. Today, it is run by the third and fourth generation, maintaining its respected position as one of the leaders in the field of air transportation of passengers and cargo.

The group is now owned and managed by his grandson Shakil Aftab Kashmirwala (Chairman) and Omer Shakil Kashmirwala (Chief Executive).

It exclusively deals with the GSA business for various international airlines in Pakistan. To achieve the group's objectives successfully, several organizations and service divisions have been established, including Kashmir Corporation (Pvt.) Ltd and Pak Turk Enterprises (Pvt.) Ltd, along with MRO Tech services, which provide maintenance, repair, and operations support.
