RAWALPINID: Fauji Foundation has appointed Lieutenant General (R) Anwar Ali Hyder as the new Director and Chairman. Waqar Ahmed Malik, who became the first civilian CEO and Managing Director (MD) of the Fauji Foundation four years ago is on his way out.
Several publicly listed companies within the Fauji Foundation saw gains during Waqar Malik’s tenure, most notably Fauji Foods, which became profitable under his direction.
Notably, Fauji Foods has increased margins and became profitable for the first time in years, even as its competitors have endured a downturn. However, Waqar was not granted an extension based on this.
