What Mercury group of company does

Mercury Group of Companies is a privately held diversified conglomerate established in 1963 and headquartered in Dubai through its operating entity Mercury ME DMCC, with regional offices in Islamabad and Karachi. The company operates across four primary sectors: heavy industry EPC services (power, steel, and gas), commodities trading (coal, wheat, sunflower oil, and sulphur), textile/fabric manufacturing, and government liaison services. Its core business involves acting as an intermediary and project executor, partnering with highly qualified CIS and European EPC organizations to deliver turnkey engineering solutions including plant construction, technical audits, overhauling, rehabilitation, modernization, and expansion of industrial facilities.

The company's technology base is conventional industrial engineering rather than proprietary software or digital platforms. Revenue is generated through project-based EPC contracts with government entities and state-owned enterprises, bulk commodity supply transactions, equipment and spares sales, and textile manufacturing. Pricing operates on a quote-based B2B model with no public disclosure. The business is led by CEO Yousuf Asif with a small executive team including COO Mohammad Ahmed, Director Finance Julia Korobeynikova, Director Business Development Ali Ahmed, and Director Salim Pathan. Customer concentration is high, with named clients including SOCAR, Pakistan LNG, Pakistan State Oil, Jamshoro Power Generation Company, and Pakistan Steel Mills, indicating heavy reliance on government-linked procurement in Pakistan and the broader CIS/Middle East region.
