The journey began in 1980, when Al Hajj Idris Miah, a visionary entrepreneur, laid the foundation of what would become a leading industrial group in Bangladesh. With a sharp business acumen and a deep understanding of market dynamics, he initially ventured into tobacco manufacturing as a driving force in the sector at the time. However, as the company evolved, he recognized the need to diversify into more sustainable and socially impactful industries. Over the years, he shifted the company's focus entirely towards agriculture, food security, and industrial materials, establishing modern rice milling, dairy farming, fisheries, and brick production as the pillars of the business. His leadership and strategic foresight transformed local industries, creating a strong foundation for long-term growth.
However, in 2020, during the global COVID-19 pandemic, the company faced an irreplaceable loss with the passing of its founder, Al Hajj Idris Miah. His sudden demise was a challenging setback for the group, but his unwavering vision and strong legacy paved the way for the next generation of leadership. Following his transition, Mrs. Rehana Begum took over as Chairman, while Mr. Gulzar Md Iah is Zihan assumed the role of Managing Director, bringing new energy, modern strategies, and innovative thinking to the organization. Under their leadership, Idris Group embarked on a new phase of expansion and diversification, focusing on modernizing operations, investing in sustainable solutions, and strengthening its market leadership.
From a modest beginning to a multi-sector industrial venture, Idris Group has steadily evolved through resilience, adaptability and excellence. Today, it stands as a symbol of progressive sustainability, and responsible entrepreneurship, shaping industries and contributing to the nation's economic and social development. The company remains dedicated to expanding its impact, embracing cutting-edge technology, and upholding its core values of integrity, innovation, and community empowerment, ensuring a stronger and more sustainable Bangladesh for generations to come.
