Quaid-e- Azam Industrial Estate is one of the largest planned Industrial Estates of Punjab, spread over an area of 565 acres. It has 477 industrial plots of the sizes varying from 1 kanal to 10 kanals.
The initial infrastructure had become overloaded that necessitated development works in such a way that the new works needed to be interwoven with the existing works. This gave a peculiar dimension to financial planning and management. Cost and time constraints were additional considerations.
