CCBPL is headquartered in Lahore, Pakistan, with 6 manufacturing facilities located at Karachi, Rahim Yar Khan, Multan, Lahore, Gujranwala and Faisalabad.

The main development impacts of the project include i) reaching a large number of farmers along the Company''s primary supply chain in collaboration with the Company''s direct suppliers in Pakistan; ii) generating benefits for MSMEs through downstream linkages along the Company''s distribution and retail networks, and iii) creating direct employment, including female employment, at the Company''s own facilities across multiple production locations in Pakistan. The project also represents an example of a South- South investment, which is expected to generate extensive knowledge sharing.

IFC''s investment will help i) address the Company''s long-term foreign currency funding need for capital expenditures; and ii) strengthen the sustainability of the Company''s supply chain by way of providing IFC''s Advisory Services to enhance the efficiency of the Company''s primary supply chain in the areas of water and resource utilization.

Based on the site appraisal visit, and discussions with CCBPL & CCI, this project will have limited potential adverse environmental and social impacts which are site-specific, reversible and easily addressed through agreed mitigation measures. The project impacts can be avoided or mitigated by adhering to recognized performance standards, procedures, guidelines and design criteria as described in the following sections. Thus, this is a Category B project in accordance with IFC’s Environmental and Social (E&S) Sustainability Policy. The project will be designed to avoid, minimize and manage E&S risks and impacts of the company’s operations in compliance with Pakistani legal and regulatory requirements, IFC’s Performance Standards (PSs) and applicable World Bank Group (WBG) General and sector-specific Environmental, Health and Safety (EHS) Guidelines.



Key E&S risks associated with these kind of investments are: (a) food safety and HACPP certification; (b) effectiveness of the company''s management systems, including its internal capacity and staffing, to undertake the project in a manner that is consistent with IFC Performance Standards; (c) resource efficiency and pollution prevention; (d) workplace and ambient noise and labor and occupational health and safety programs; (e) third party workers / supply chain occupational health and safety and labor issues; (g) and life, fire and traffic safety.
