The Competition Commission of Pakistan has officially approved the merger between UI Garments and the popular clothing brand formerly known as Junaid Jamshed (now operating as J.).

This strategic move combines UI Garments’ manufacturing capabilities with the well-established retail presence of the J. brand, which was originally founded by the late singer and Islamic scholar Junaid Jamshed.

The approval comes after careful regulatory review, with both companies expected to benefit from shared resources and expanded market reach.

The J. brand, which underwent rebranding following its founder’s tragic death in a 2016 plane crash, maintains its strong customer base in Pakistan’s modest fashion market.

Industry observers anticipate this merger will enhance production capacity while preserving the brand’s distinctive identity.
