SHELL PAKISTAN LIMITED

PROFILE

Shell has a rich legacy and long association with Pakistan. As one of the oldest multinational companies in the country, Shell has been a partner in the region’s growth and development for over a century, dating back to 1898 when Royal Dutch Petroleum Company began supplying oil products to the subcontinent. Currently Shell in Pakistan is headed by Mr. Zaiviji Ismail bin Abdullah, Chairman of Shell Companies in Pakistan.

Shell is best known for its retail stations spread across the country. Shell is the largest international player in retail outlets in Pakistan, providing fuel to over 1.5 million customers daily. With a dynamic portfolio and a fast-growing retail network, the Shell Brand is the most preferred brand amongst motorists across Pakistan.

The Shell Lubricants business prides itself in being the market leader in introducing innovative, technically superior products, which makes us the number one choice for our consumers. The three major Lubricant brands Shell Helix, Shell Rimula, and Shell Advance, have earned super brand status both globally & locally.

Shell fuels are backed by unique technological expertise and decades of research and development by some of the brightest minds in the industry to deliver peak performance, quality and reliability. Shell Pakistan is whole-heartedly committed to benefiting from this global pool of expertise, and providing its customers with the best fuel products for their needs.

Shell also provides world-class domestic heating oils; commercial road transport and industrial and wholesale products to business customers, aimed at helping them find all the resources quickly and efficiently.

Shell has positioned itself as the supplier of first choice for all major foreign airlines visiting Pakistan. We have been serving all the major domestic & international airlines and aviators visiting major airfields of Pakistan since independence.

A systematic approach to HSSE management has been designed to not only ensure compliance with the law but also to help achieve continuous improvement in safety performance.

Shell Pakistan has taken a leadership role in contributing to society through a structured social investment program that aims to integrate the economic, social and environmental needs of the local communities. This program supports organizations and initiatives in the areas of health, education, welfare, community development, heritage and environment.

Shell Pakistan has made a significant contribution to Layton Rahmatullah Benevolent Trust (LRBT), which provides free eye care treatment including cornea replacement to over one million patients free of cost annually.

SPL annually sponsors a home for orphan children in the SOS Children’s Villages, and has recently sponsored an SOS Technical Centre for Auto-workshop training.  In 2008, we have launched our Shell Scholarship programme with the HEC, for deserving students from underprivileged sectors of our society for degrees in Higher Education.

We continue to assist with the rehabilitation of the October 2005 Earthquake affectees and have built a Primary School in the remote village of Kalaban for 300 schoolchildren who were left without a school building in the aftermath of the calamity. Recently we partnered with The Citizens Foundation to establish three Shell Campuses in the earthquake-affected region of Battagram. The schools have recently been completed, and currently enrol 109 students from the community, of which almost forty percent are girls.

Our Shell Tameer Program, introduced in 2003, today exists as one of the foremost efforts to facilitate youth entrepreneurship in the country.  Now in its sixth year of providing entrepreneurship guidance, Shell Tameer has engaged more than 45,000 young people through workshops, seminars, meetings and the company website. By the end of June 2009, more than 66 workshops had been conducted for 2,500 young people, and 57 seminars had provided awareness to over 12,000 students.

Shell Pakistan is also one of the first companies in our country to fight the spread of HIV/AIDS. Breaking taboos to educate, we offer VCT services through our partners to disseminate education about HIV/AIDS, and to facilitate its prevention.  Both these initiatives help us strengthen our fence-line communities, and help secure our business performance by offering free medical guidance to our hauliers and contractors.

In an increasingly competitive business environment, we at Shell Pakistan strive ever harder to maintain operational excellence. We strengthen standardized and simplified business processes and systems, and ensure top quality, right quantity and superior service to all customers across the country.  Our core values of honesty, integrity and respect for people continue to remain integral to our way of doing business.
