Sazgar Engineering Works Limited (SAZEW), a leading Pakistani automaker, announced plans to enter new export markets, including the Philippines, Mexico, and Afghanistan, as part of its strategy to drive growth and diversify revenues.
In an analyst briefing held on Thursday, Sazgar’s management shared that despite the challenges posed by recent floods, deliveries largely remained unaffected, with only temporary disruptions when the Karachi–Lahore road was closed. The floods have severely impacted supply chains and caused delays in transportation due to infrastructure damage.
Sazgar, which currently offers six vehicle variants, including four Haval models and two Jolion models, noted that strong demand has pushed delivery timelines from 2-3 months to 4 months. The company’s daily production capacity for four-wheelers is 40 vehicles, but current output has reached 60 vehicles per day. As demand continues to grow, management is considering expanding production to 100-120 vehicles daily, with the potential for double shifts.
Additionally, the company is planning to introduce new models, including the Tank and Canon Alpha, targeted for launch in March 2026.
On the financial front, Sazgar reported an 89% increase in turnover to Rs 109 billion and a 106% rise in profit after tax (PAT) to Rs 16 billion, driven primarily by strong Haval sales.
