Dewan Textile Mills Limited is one of the most modern textile mills in the country. This was the first textile mill of the group, which entered the group into the manufacturing sector of the country.

The project, which was started in 1970 with a cost of Rs 20.5 million, has now grown to a size of Rs 800 million. The civil works of the project were completed in September 1971 and the installation of the machinery was started in June of the same year and completed in October. The trial production started in November 1971 and within a month, the unit went into commercial production. Now the production has reached a level of around 23 million kilograms of yarn per year using a capacity of more than 61,000 spindles. The sales in 1999 exceeded Rs. 2.3 billion and are growing. The company has recently started its own power generation which will bring a substantial cost saving for the company.

Dewan Textile Mills has two parallel manufacturing facilities; both located at Kotri near Hyderabad, in the province of Sindh, Pakistan.

The raw material used is lint cotton both of local origin and imported. The unit has applied the most modern technology in its facilities and has installed the latest model Swiss made yarn cleaner which ensures an extremely good quality of the yarn product. Another achievement was the installation of a computer controlled yarn classmate, which can check the quality of different counts directly on the production machines; thus the necessity of bringing the samples physically to the laboratory is eliminated.

One of the basic strengths of the unit, indeed of the Group, is professionalized working atmosphere. This has resulted in the development of a high calibre and dedicated group of executives who are efficiently managing the operations of the project.

The professional approach of the management also results in constant cost and efficiency appraisal, helping the company to maintain its competitive edge.
