My Dear Members,

I on behalf of my self, my colleagues and all the members of All Pakistan Solvent Extractors Association feel proud to give my message on this web site.

While doing so I wish to record the appreciation of the keenness of the Government to study closely the problems and attainments of growers and extractors for future development, cooperation and better achievements for the prosperity and welfare of the people and Solvent Industry in Pakistan.

Edible Oil being basic requirement of life needs no emphasis to treat this commodity with velvet gloves so that prosperity of the country is achieved and the interest of the growers and extractors is safeguarded. Although Pakistan has earned for itself a vantage position amongst the oil seed growing countries of the world with definite signs of improvement during the past years. Yet it needs a complete overhaul based on an analytical study and adoption of technical measures for the improvement of the whole solvent industry.

It is a matter of great appreciation that since last few years the production of oil has steadily been improved based upon several factors including a revolution in the quality consciousness exhibited by the buyers. I feel no hesitation to state that a remarkable cooperation has been extended by my members, friends and extractors from all over Pakistan that is why ever since the standard of extracting in Pakistan has shown definite sign of further improvement and embarked upon an era of maintaining higher standard of extracting which has brought good name to Pakistan in the community of solvent industry which is evident from the fact that our efforts in promoting the standard/ grade of edible oil has improved but this is not an end. There is still room for further improvement to which we are doing our best.

We are going along with the Government proposals and strategy and struggling full to increase the production of oil seed crop by supporting our growers many more than that of announced by the Government. I am confident that my friends will adopt the entire possible means and measures to work for production of high quality edible oil which will name Pakistan as a best producers country, all over the world.
