Syed Manzur Elahi

Syed Manzur Elahi The man who caught the eyes by manufacturing and supply of the shoes into the home market is Mr. Manzur Elahi, a notable entrepreneur and former adviser to Caretaker Government. Apex Footwear established by him is not only received well at home market but also in foreign markets. It can be said that the principal market of shoes manufactured by Apex Footwear is outside the country. There is no such second enterprise to collect raw hides, leather from home, process and make into shoes. For this reason this entrepreneur personality has gained exceptionality amongst many. Starting business in 1973 he built Apex Foods, Apex Tannery, Apex Footwear, and Manzur Industries in phases. He is also a founder Chairman of Pioneer Insurance Company. In addition to that he is also a Director of the owner company of the Daily Financial Express, International Publications Limited. Alongside Leather Industry, Foods, Insurance and Newspaper Industry provided him with uniqueness as investor entrepreneur. Though his success is multi-dimensional ‘Apex Footwear’ is a unique industrial enterprise. By dint of his competent leadership a standard private University like East West University could have been established. He is the Chairman of the Board of Directors of this University. Mr.Manzur Elahi also performed responsibilities as President of Metropolitan Chamber of Commerce and Industry. He is former Director of Bangladesh Bank, Sonali Bank, Bangladesh Krishi Bank and Export Promotion Bureau. Apart from that he is dedicated into important responsibilities of International Chamber of Commerce and Industry and Bangladesh Employers Federation. A skilled and farsighted entrepreneur like Mr. Manzur Elahi is very much needed in Leather Industry where expected growth is stagnant due to lack of skilled and right entrepreneur. It is very difficult to find an experienced person in countless subjects like Banks, Insurance, Government, Administration, Business, and Industry simultaneously. Arthokatha presented him with the recognition of “Best Business Personality of the Year” in 2007 taking into consideration his contributions in country’s economy. Everybody expects his participation will be extended into industrialization and economic prosperity of upcoming Bangladesh. Mr.Manzur Elahi was honored once earlier in 2005 and more than one time earlier in similar manner. Heartiest Greetings and felicitations for and on behalf of Arthokatha to him.
