Mir Group is a Bangladeshi industrial conglomerate established in 1940. With operations across sectors such as construction, cement, ceramics, concrete products, ready-mix concrete, real estate, telecom, and IT,[1] the group has become a well known name in Bangladesh’s industrial landscape.

History

[edit]

Mir Group[2] traces its roots back to 1960, when Mir Akhter Hossain Limited was founded by Mir Akeb Hossain, a visionary entrepreneur committed to national development through infrastructure. Following his passing in 1969, his son Mir Zaher Hossain, a BUET graduate, took over leadership and expanded the company’s presence in the construction industry.[3]

In its current structure, Mir Group is managed by members of the founding family across three generations. The company's leadership includes Sohela Hossain as President, Shama-E-Zaheer as Chairman, Fida E Zaheer as Vice Chairman, and Naba-E-Zaheer as Managing Director.

What began with railway construction gradually evolved[4] into large-scale infrastructure development—including roads, bridges, airports, and commercial structures.[5] Over time, the group diversified into related industries such as cement,[6] ceramics, real estate, telecom, and IT, establishing key concerns like Mir Cement[7] and Mir Real Estate.[8]

Now spanning three generations,[9] Mir Group has grown into a publicly listed conglomerate employing thousands and contributing significantly to Bangladesh's economic and infrastructural progress. The group’s evolution has been guided by long-term leadership, skilled management, and a forward-thinking approach to expansion and innovation.

Mir Group engages in various CSR activities, including a 2024 relief campaign by Mir Cement for flood-affected areas in Bangladesh.[10]
