With humble beginnings, Paragon started its journey in the heart of Dhaka city in 1952 with a printing press founded by the late Mizanur Rahman. In 1993 under the leadership of Mr. Moshiur Rahman and Mrs. Yasmin Rahman, the business diversified to the agricultural sector, becoming one of the pioneers in Bangladesh. With a great vision, it grew and flourished into ten different business sectors, represented now as Paragon Group.
Paragon envisions a green and developing future. Throughout all the projects under the group, a significant contribution to renewable energy and zero waste management is always executed as it is critical for maintaining preservation and sustainability.
Managing Director
I started my journey as an entrepreneur in the heart of a printing factory in 1979 with my father, Mizanur Rahman. As new industries began to evolve throughout Bangladesh, I pivoted towards the poultry industry in 1992 as an opportunity, capital, and vision amalgamated with what is Paragon today.
I want to reflect on our journey and share our values and mission. When I started this company, my vision was to create a business that not only provided high-quality day-old birds but also made a positive impact on the world. In addition, I wanted to build a company driven by a sense of purpose and a commitment to doing what is right. Over the years, we have grown and expanded, but our values have remained the same. We believe in
Innovation: We constantly push the boundaries of what is possible, using technology and creativity to solve problems and create value for our customers.
Integrity: We uphold the highest standards of honesty and ethics in all business dealings, treating our employees, customers, and partners with respect and fairness.
Sustainability: We are committed to minimizing our environmental impact and promoting sustainable practices by implementing waste reduction and recycling programs in all our projects.
I am proud of what we have achieved together, and we will continue to innovate, lead by example, and drive positive change in the world.
Director
My husband and I started this company with a flock of 100-layer birds in my father's backyard. After 25 years of commitment to this industry, Paragon is now one of the largest poultry and animal feed industries in Bangladesh. Throughout our journey, we always believed that sustainable practices are not only good for the environment but also good for our business.
And next to sustainability, I want to emphasize the importance of women entrepreneurship and its significant role in our company's growth and success. Creating an environment that empowers women is not only the right thing to do but also an intelligent business decision. We are committed to providing opportunities for women to develop their skills and build successful businesses. We understand the challenges that women entrepreneurs face, including access to capital, resources, and networks. Therefore, we are actively working towards creating a more inclusive and supportive environment that enables women entrepreneurs to thrive.
We know there is still work to be done, and we are committed to ongoing improvement and innovation. Thank you for your continued support of our company's values and mission.
Director
Paragon proudly serves our customers with high-quality agricultural products, industrial-grade packaging, and consumer foods and services. As an industrialist from the 21st century, my mission is to deliver sustainable solutions that contribute to the growth of our industries and ensure food security for our nation.
As we navigate the current challenges in the global agricultural landscape, we remain committed to our core values of integrity, innovation, and excellence. We continue to invest in research and development and in our people to ensure we provide our customers with the best products and services.
We understand the importance of responsible use of natural resources, and we are committed to sustainable practices that support the health and well-being of our planet. However, with the growing population and climate change, food security is becoming a significant challenge for many countries. Therefore, we must work together to find sustainable solutions to ensure everyone can access safe and nutritious food.
As entrepreneurs, we can leverage our skills and resources to develop new technologies, business models, and strategies that enhance food production, distribution, and consumption. We also collaborate with governments, NGOs, and local communities to build resilient food systems that can withstand the shocks of natural disasters, conflicts, and pandemics.
We thank you for your continued trust and support as we work to grow and evolve our business. Together, we can build a brighter and better future.
