Punjab Sahulat Bazaar Authority has become the first institution of its kind to receive ISO 901 and ISO 27001 certifications from an internationally recognized Swiss institution.
The authority has set up more than 17,000 Sahulat Bazaar stalls across Punjab.
According to an official statement, around 6,000 stalls have been set up in 36 districts, while 1,000 stalls have been established in 10 newly launched Sahulat Bazaars.
In addition, over 10,000 temporary weekend stalls are operating across the province to facilitate the public.
Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz congratulated the Punjab Sahulat Bazaar Authority team on achieving international recognition. She described the certification as a major milestone and appreciated the authority’s efforts in ensuring access to affordable and quality consumer goods.
The chief minister set a target to launch Sahulat Bazaars in three more districts by January. She said that providing quality goods at affordable prices is the right of the people of Punjab.
Maryam Nawaz further stated that the scope of the Punjab Sahulat Bazaar Authority will be expanded gradually from districts and tehsils to smaller towns to benefit more citizens.
