TIMELINE
1937
Where it all began...The Inception Murree...The land of clouds!
The birth of this nearly 90 year old business took place in the foothills of the Himalayas; Murree. We were the pioneers of readymade garments as at that time this culture wasn’t prevalent in the area. The shop was initially called ‘The Gown House’ and later was changed to ‘Deans’
1941
Some small changes...The name 'DEANS'. From Gown House...To now!
The name ‘Deans’ comes from the Urdu name ‘Deen’ the literal translation of which is ‘Faith’. Mazher and Fakeer Hussain, his brother, named the business after their father, ‘Qazi Mohammad Deen’ and ever since the business has been serving its customers with quality products which till this day has been our main goal.
1947
Subcontinent...The Partition. New people...The Community!
In 1947 the Subcontinent was divided into two Parts; India and Pakistan. This led to one of the biggest migration in the history of the world. Mazher and his family, being prominent people in the region helped the migrants in settling down and the influx of migrants helped the business boost
1949
Some small changes...Rawalpindi, Saddar! Expanding to new cities...A New Beginning!
Murree had been a huge success for Mazher and Fakeer and it was time that they expanded to other areas of Pakistan. They both made the decision to open a shop in Saddar, Rawalpindi which was a prime business locality.
1952
The move...To Lahore, Punjab! The city of gardens...Mall Road Shop!
Once the family shifted to Lahore it was only sensible to open a shop here and close the shop in Murree.
1961
Shop Opened...Karachi, Saddar! Saying hello to...The City of Lights!
Mazher had the idea of expanding to other parts of Pakistan and naturally Karachi was a great business opportunity.
1979
Our own Factory...Multan Road! A big step...A newer Beginning!
Once the family shifted to Lahore it was only sensible to open a shop here and close the shop in Murree.
