Skilled craftsmanship has always been at the heart of Imran's livelihood. Living in Lahore with his wife and children, he has extensive experience operating lathe machines and manufacturing iron-moulded spare parts. Over the years, he developed valuable technical skills and a strong understanding of the industry, supplying precision-engineered components used across a variety of sectors.
Despite his expertise, Imran spent years working in someone else's workshop, earning a wage that was often insufficient to cover household expenses and rent. While he dreamed of running a business of his own, limited financial resources made it difficult to take that next step.
Everything changed when a friend introduced him to Akhuwat, Lendwithcare's local partner in Pakistan. After successfully applying for a loan, Imran used the funding to rent his own premises and purchase the lathe machines needed to establish an independent spare parts business.
The move proved transformative. Running his own workshop enabled Imran to expand production, build a customer base and increase his income. As the business grew, so did his financial stability, allowing him to provide more effectively for his family and create a stronger foundation for the future.
Today, Imran continues to develop his enterprise while drawing on the skills and experience he has built over many years. His business has become an important source of security for his household and a testament to the opportunities that access to finance can create for hardworking entrepreneurs.
Imran remains deeply grateful to Akhuwat and Lendwithcare for the support he received during a challenging period in his life. He believes their assistance played a vital role in helping him establish his own business and build a more prosperous future for his family.
