Mian Muhammad Latif (Urdu: میاں محمد لطیف) is a prominent Pakistani industrialist and businessman who is Chairman and CEO of Chenab Group and ChenOne.
Mian Muhammad Latif was born in 1952 in Toba Tek Singh to a Arain Punjabi family. His father Haji Muhammad Saleem was a cotton industrialist and an entrepreneur. He later moved to Faisalabad for studies and after graduating in 1974, he started textile business by setting up a small processing unit that has, over the years, become one of the largest vertically integrated textile group of Pakistan known as Chenab Group. This business group's industrial units are involved in cotton yarn spinning, fabric weaving as well as fabric stitching processes. Chenab Group processes 50 million square meters of weaved fabric and 75 million square meters of dyed fabric every year. It has established a global sales network in all the continents of the world. This group is mainly engaged in manufacture and distribution of clothing, furniture, household quilts and curtains.
