In 1992, two entrepreneur brothers (Musadaq Zulqarnain & Navid Fazil) along with Tariq Rashid created what has now become one of the world’s largest Hosiery Manufacturing and Exporting Company. The pioneers along with the team worked passionately day and night to create history in hosiery manufacturing. It all started one fine day, when the younger brother Navid shared the idea of starting a Hosiery company with his mother Begum Sarwari Sadiq who consulted her elder son Musadaq. The idea seemed doable. Both Tariq and Navid went to Italy to learn the basics of knitting and so began the journey of building a Global Company.
One afternoon over tea in April 1992, the pioneers discussed options for the company name and selected ‘Interloop’ based on the meaning of Knitting ‘Interlooping of the Yarn’.
