that is in the dairy sector and that aims to win and sustain the confidence of the consumer as one
of its primary objectives. This focus on ethics and integrity is not only outward looking, the daily

other such considerations. We believe the a fore mentioned values to be fundamental pillars of

while consistently emboldening every one with us to the right thing at all times.
Pursuit of Excellence
The Haleeb team is sold to the idea of perfection completely. There are many manifestations of
this concept; we want to deliver to the consumer outstanding quality and taste in the shape of our
products; we want to deliver to the stakeholders; our investors and lenders the returns and
profitability. For the employees, we want them to stretch themselves and chalk out a glittering

levels to perform exceptionally.
Empowerment and Accountability
Authority and accountability are twin concepts and we at Haleeb believe in providing employees
at all levels the right kind of authority which develops their decision, making skills and makes
them think independently. And grow as business executives/managers, obviously wi th adequate
controls in place so as to manage the risk in all decisions. This creates a sense of ownership in
people boosting their morale as authority is delegated. Empowerment results in devolution of trust
and establishment of a healthy working environment. Delegating responsibility, however, comes
with personal responsibility. Thus, in order to ensure a result oriented and effective business
environment, competent monitoring processes are practiced, where each employee takes
responsibility for his/her respective decisions.

sharing knowledge and working collectively. The concept of working in teams and with
coordination comes in handy for reaping benefits from pooled talent and expertise ultimately
resulting in higher productivity. A platform is provided to people where going an extra mile to
accomplish team objective is a common routine. To add further value to our work practices,
experienced and capable top management provides consistent counseling which enables
employees to work towards a shared vision.

standard of life, not merely for our customers but also for the community at large. While
