Peoples Ceramic Industries Ltd. pioneered the manufacturing of porcelain tableware’s in Bangladesh in 1962. The company was established by late Mr Ansar Uddin Ahmed, a Civil Engineer with a view to improving the lives of ordinary people who could not afford to eat off a ceramic plate.

European Style tableware’s were chosen for fabrication as they were popular at home & that would create an opportunity to export in due course; PCI tableware’s were welcomed in Holland & United Kingdom in 1981. In the initial years, along with basic house wares items, Tea Cups & Saucers suitable for restaurant use were also fabricated. Marketing the quantity produced posed a big problem & thereafter Late Mr Ahmed opened doors to market them in Pakistan competing against 2 factories there.
