Khaadi Pakistan Ltd., a fashion retail company, is planning an initial public offering next month to fund its outlet expansion plan.

Khaadi Pakistan Ltd., a fashion retailer, is set to launch an initial public offering (IPO) next month, according to a report by Bloomberg. The company aims to raise between Rs6.2 billion and Rs8.3 billion through the IPO, which will be used to bolster its retail outlet network. Khaadi is a subsidiary of Weaves Corp., with the International Finance Corporation, a World Bank Group member, holding a minority stake.

The brand primarily operates in Pakistan but also has a presence in the UAE, the UK, and the US. Arif Habib Ltd. is handling the transaction's financial advisory.
