Pakistan’s geo-strategic and demographical location has always been a plus point for the country when it comes to trade and business.
Several businesses around the world including big names like Ali Baba Group are willing to invest within the country to explore what potential the Pakistani markets hold ahead for them.
Considering that the nation’s economy and e-commerce sector has seen a big boom in the past, the future holds a lot of opportunities for these Chinese and international brands to leave an imprint.
Whale Cloud- a member of Alibaba Group and partner in Alibaba Cloud’s software ecosystem, has shown a keen interest in investing in the county. The company has pledged to invest a whopping amount of $70 million in the economy in the next 2-3 years.
