In 1984, a young entrepreneur named Sh Muhammad Ilyas saw an opportunity to redefine quality in Pakistan’s packaging industry. With little more than unwavering integrity and a commitment to craftsmanship, he founded SMI Traders. Starting as a humble supplier of polypropylene woven bags, Sh Muhammad Ilyas’s hands-on approach—personally inspecting every weave and seam—quickly earned the trust of rice mills and exporters. His motto was simple: "A bag isn’t just a container; it’s a promise of protection."
In packaging, longevity isn’t just a number—it’s proof of resilience. For four decades, we’ve navigated market shifts, technological revolutions, and evolving client needs. Our PP woven rice bags and laminated bags now protect millions of tons of goods across Pakistan and beyond, because we’ve mastered what newer competitors overlook:
Heavy grain storage & export
Custom sizes (25kg to 90kg+)
Anti-slip, UV-stabilized weaves
