The name of US Group is synonymous with dependable, industry-focused, and humanized business savviness. We are a family owned professionally managed group of companies named after the first-born children Umer & Siddique of the two founders Mian Ahsan and Javed Bhatti. Since our beginning in 1975, we are focused on doing well by giving back to all our stakeholders and this planet that we share with more than 8 billion humans and other species. Customer intensive collaborative approach, innovation-driven flexible operations, par excellence manufacturing capacity, and highly trained diverse workforce have been our forte for the last 48 years. We started as a denim fabric and apparel manufacturer exporting top-quality products across the globe. Excelling at our core expertise, we ventured into other verticals of non-denim fabrics and apparel, footwear, and logistics successfully.
