History
Shan Foods was founded in 1981, as a cottage industry operation, operating out of the home of the company's founder Sikander Sultan. He, along with his wife, started making spice mixes at their home, which started selling in Pakistan and with Pakistanis who had moved to the neighbouring Arab countries, Europe, United States and Canada.[3][4]
