CP Group may invest in Pakistani poultry and aquaculture

CP Group may invest in Pakistani poultry and fishing sectors, with likely investments in shrimp processing and marketing, and poultry and seed production.

A Pakistani government official revealed that the group is hoping to produce halal foods for exports to other countries. In the long run, the group may also invest in livestock, meat production, and milk packaging.

This turn of events came after a recent visit to Pakistan by a CP delegation, upon the invitation of Prime Minister Shaukat Aziz.

The delegation have visited four provinces to determine if they should invest into the country's agriculture and livestock sector.
