Our Management
Meet the Founder and CEO
When I returned to Pakistan as a young graduate from the US, I was struck by the fact that many people were hesitant to embrace seafood as a healthier protein alternative to chicken and beef due to its aroma, prices, and lack of awareness. Driven by my passion for seafood, commitment to quality, and innovation, I founded Mahi Frozen Foods to bridge this gap.
My incredible journey of 30 years in this field nurtured a vision of going the extra mile to not only deliver exceptional quality but also add the convenience factor that is presently missing in the market. Today, the Mahi Seafood brand – a global pioneer – brings my vision to life, offering you the taste of exceptional seafood without compromising on convenience or quality. We understand that seafood can be intimidating, but we believe that everyone deserves the chance to savor its incredible flavors. That’s why we’re dedicated to providing you with the finest seafood from the tidal waters of the Indian Subcontinent in the most convenient way through our heat-and-eat and ready-to-cook product lines. This way you can experience the joy of extraordinary seafood, just as I did when I first fell in love with it.

Meet the Third Generation
My journey began during my early years, accompanying my father to the factory on weekends, spending hours either in the Microbiology Lab, captivated by microorganisms under the microscope or on the production floor, wearing an oversized coat and boots. I’ve been fortunate to witness our company’s growth from a unique perspective: my father’s unwavering passion and dedication, shaping the company with his visionary ideas. I couldn’t help but dream of contributing to our legacy one day.
In 2020, after graduating from the University of British Columbia, I joined the family business, leading an exciting project centered around frozen seafood delicacies. What fuels my passion for this mission is my own personal experience. As a student, I struggled to find meals that were both easy on the pocket and offered the genuine taste of home-cooked dishes. As someone who loves seafood, I also faced the challenges of finding seafood that’s both affordable and of high quality. Simultaneously, I watched people struggling with cooking seafood at home, often opting for chicken or beef due to their ease of preparation. This connection to the struggles faced by not only students but also busy individuals who barely have time to cook drives my passion and dedication to this project.
And so, with the legacy of my family as my guiding light, I’m wholeheartedly committed to bringing the convenience and delicious authenticity of our seafood offerings to your table, ensuring that everyone can savor the joy of extraordinary seafood, just as I did when I, too, first fell in love with it.
