Over the years, through hard word and dedication, women's chamber of commerce and industry Multan has emerged and been acknowledged as the best in Pakistan. This chamber is a great example of networking and co-operation on national and international level. Where members and administration of this chamber are successful entrepreneurs, they are also fully capable of running this platform, as a profitable business.
Although, WCCIM is a success story from the beginning but it reached higher strata, after its patronage was taken by Mrs. Farrukh Mukhtar. A lady who strongly believes in women empowerment and has always dreamt of empowering women of South Punjab on grass-root level. Through all her means, she is supporting, sponsoring, providing better chances, connecting all the members of this chamber to better opportunities on higher grounds.
Masooma Sibtain is also a star of this chamber. She remained with this chamber through the hard times. Brought it out of tumultuous waters and successfully anchored it, under supervision of the patron in chief of WCCIM. She served as president of WCCIM and currently she holds the responsibilities of being spokesperson of this chamber. Her capabilities are well known, at national and international level. As an acknowledgement for Masooma Sibtain's efforts, her name was suggested for the vice-president of FPCCI elections. United Business Group welcomed her as its own candidate and showered its support by campaigning for her around the country. And its UBG members also visited Multan, the city of saints as part of that campaigning.
