International Hospitality Investment Group Pakistan to Go Public in 2022

International Hospitality Investment Group (IHIG) Pakistan, a subsidiary of IHIG UK, is the first hospitality and fractional investment company aiming to become publicly listed in Pakistan.

The company plans to launch its initial public offer (IPO) in 2022.

IHIG is Pakistan’s first Vacation/Fractional Ownership company, headquartered in London, and primarily involved in the development and marketing of shared ownership properties in highly desired locations in Pakistan.

After great success in Vacation Ownership, IHIG has extended its investment portfolio in the property sector in Pakistan with its mall project offering. The company has brought the concept of Fractional Ownership to meet the new consumer demand for generating a recurring passive income for the country. This project is marketed and managed by the Fractional Ownership division of IHIG.
