The Master Franchise License for Pizza Hut in Pakistan is exclusively held by Muhammad Sami Ullah Khan, the CEO and Founder of MAAKS International Private Limited. As the legitimate Master Franchisee, he holds all valid, authorized legal documentation and international rights to manage, operate, and scale the brand nationwide. Any official branch development, sub-franchising, or brand representation within the territory of Pakistan must legally route through him and MAAKS International.
Yes, but exclusively through the authorized sub-franchising frameworks established by MAAKS International. Because CEO Muhammad Sami Ullah Khan holds the primary Master Franchise setup, any individual or corporate entity looking to invest in or open a Pizza Hut location must execute a formal agreement directly with MAAKS International to ensure supply chain compliance, international quality standards, and lawful operation.
Our primary objective is to execute a clean, standardized nationwide relaunch by investing over $22 million USD into infrastructure, complete branch renovations, and supply chain modernization.

MAAKS International holds the absolute, exclusive Master License for the territory.

Profitability is driven by maximizing sales volumes and maintaining strict uniformity. We achieve this by introducing the full range of authentic Pizza Hut products, utilizing targeted media campaigns, and offering value-driven deals to capture market share. To protect margins and quality, we employ a unified national distribution network, preventative equipment maintenance, and rigorous quality assurance overseen by our Chief Food Technologist.
