A new chapter in Pakistan’s air-conditioning industry has begun as MIA Industries Pvt. Ltd., the assembly arm of MIA Group of Companies, announces the commencement of local assembly of Daikin residential air conditioners on a Completely Knocked Down (CKD) basis.
The landmark initiative was unveiled at Daikin ReConnect 2026 in Islamabad, bringing together Daikin’s senior leadership, MIA’s nationwide dealer network, business partners and industry leaders.
The event was attended by Mr. Toshiharu Tsurumaru, Chief Operating Officer, Daikin Malaysia, along with senior Daikin officials. Mr. Yousaf Hassan, President, HVACR Society of Pakistan, attended as Chief Guest, while H.E. Ambassador Dato’ Mohammad Azhar Mazlan, High Commissioner of Malaysia to Pakistan, graced the occasion as Guest of Honor.
For MIA, the initiative marks the next chapter in a longstanding relationship with Daikin built on trust, performance and a shared commitment to quality. Local assembly is expected to improve product availability, strengthen customer support and bring Daikin’s world-class technology closer to consumers across Pakistan, while maintaining the brand’s global quality standards.
“To be the first distributor in the world trusted by Daikin to assemble their residential air conditioners is an honor, and a responsibility we carry with pride,” said Muhammad Ashraf Arrain, Chairman, MIA Group of Companies.
Mr. Toshiharu Tsurumaru said the collaboration would help bring assembly closer to the market, supporting faster turnaround, improved product availability and stronger service support across the country.
From global expertise to local assembly, Daikin and MIA are taking another significant step towards a stronger future for Pakistan’s air-conditioning industry.
