In Pakistan’s electrical industry, few names resonate with legacy and reliability as strongly as SMS Enterprises. What began as a modest shop more than six decades ago has today transformed into a trusted source for panel builders, industries, and solar companies across the country.
The story of SMS Enterprises is rooted in determination and family vision. Back in 1960, Sheikh Muhammad Shafi Daftari took his first step into entrepreneurship by establishing SM Shafi and Co. after gaining valuable experience working with his brother at A.R Sultan Ahmad. From this foundation, his eldest son, Abdullah Shafi, carried forward the legacy by formally setting up SMS Enterprises. With humble beginnings and a deep commitment to quality, the business steadily grew into a reliable partner for the power and automation sector.
Today, under the leadership of Abdullah Shafi (Founder) Rehmatullah Abdullah (CEO) and Sibghatullah (COO), SMS Enterprises continues to serve as a vital supplier to the country’s leading panel builders. The company specializes in a wide variety of equipment, including solutions for controlling, automation, and power distribution, while keeping profit margins low to ensure the best quality is delivered at the most reasonable prices.
“Our strength lies in being accessible to our clients,” said Rehmatullah Abdullah. “Whether it’s a large panel builder or a mill in need of reliable equipment, SMS Enterprises ensures availability and service at competitive rates.”
Over the years, the company has proudly supplied components to some of the largest flour, rice, and lentil mills in the country. Recognizing market needs, SMS Enterprises has also diversified into the solar sector, offering solar boxes, control boxes, and related accessories to meet the growing demand for renewable energy solutions.
A distinctive feature of SMS Enterprises is the breadth of its inventory. From switchgear parts and control panel components to accessories used for terminations and joints in transformers, the company has positioned itself as a comprehensive resource. Notably, control panels used in elevators and lifts across Pakistan rely on accessories provided by their in-house brand Kripal, a name now well recognized in the market.
With this wide range of offerings, SMS Enterprises has established itself as the go-to supplier for panel builders who demand quality, availability, and affordability in a competitive environment.
Looking ahead, the company has ambitious plans. “In the next five years, we envision SMS Enterprises as a one-window solution for accessories related to switchgears, transformers, solar equipment, and more, all at the most reasonable prices,” shared Rehmatullah Abdullah.
From its rich history to its forward-looking strategy, SMS Enterprises embodies the spirit of reliability and innovation. For panel builders and industries seeking trusted partners in Pakistan’s electrical sector, SMS Enterprises stands ready with the experience, inventory, and vision to deliver.
