| The
Herbion Family is established with an objective
of providing quality and natural herbal medicines
and dietary supplements all around the world under
its own brand name. For achieving the said purpose,
the set up of the Herbion family was started when
Mr. Nadeem Khalid and Mr. Khurram Khalid incorporated
a fully owned Company with the name of Bellingham
Holdings LLC (BHL) in the District of Columbia,
Washington D.C. on January 18, 2000 with a capital
of USD 440,000/- and the equity being shared equally
between them. The BHL on August 13, 2001 make
its investment in Herbion Pakistan (Private) Limited
(HPPL), Karachi, Pakistan, The managing Board
of the Herbion Group then decided to export and
market their products initially to Common wealth
Independent States (CIS) and the Central Asian
States due to their relative prior years’
experience in those states and afterward to other
parts of the world. The managing board at that
time also decided that the brand name, which they
will promote in future would be “HERBION”.
In order to curb the practical
difficulties in marketing and promoting the medicines
in the most difficult economy and market of the
world i.e. the CIS and the Central Asian States,
the Managing Board of Herbion decided to venture
this task by opening their own new offices in
respective countries. One after the other, by
mean of strategic planning and with an objective
in mind to grow the Herbion family as a Multinational
Company, the group expands from Moscow (Russian
Federation) to Almaty (Kazakhstan) by opening
five different offices in different countries
and with a common name of “PHARMACIA UNIVERSAL
LLC” (PU). The name of PU was decided due
to taking over of some of the chain pharmacies
with the same name in certain CIS states.
After realizing in the year 2002
that for promoting the products in certain Central
Asian countries and CIS and further to avoid trademark
related issues in those countries, the managing
Board then decided to establish another brand
name of “HERBAL AGE”. For achieving
the said purpose, Mr. Nadeem Khalid and Mr. Khurram
Khalid incorporated a new Company with the name
of Herbal age (Privat its operations as being
a trading Company and for the purpose of exporting
Herbion’s product under the brand name of
Herbalage to avoid registration of trademark and
registration of products with Ministry of Health
of respective countries.
In order to give a corporate image to the Herbion
Group, the managing board incorporated Herbion
International Inc. on June 12, 2003 in Nassau,
Bahamas. The purpose of incorporating Herbion
International Inc. is to make it as a parent Company
and all other group companies being its subsidiaries
/ associated companies or related parties in recent
future. As the Company is being recently incorporated
and the related business operating transactions
like opening of bank accounts etc. is still under
process and it is yet to commence its commercial
operations.
