Alim Industries Limited is established in 1990 at the BISCIC Industrial Estate, Gutatikar, Sylhet. Late M. A. Alim Chowdhury was the mastermind behind establishment of the industry. In fact the industry is the definitive manifestation of his long-cherished ingenious vision of the founder.

Since the inauguration of his career, applied technology became the centre point of Alim Chowdhury's dream and aspiration. Industrial backwardness of the Sylhet region disheartened him constantly. In particular, the question of transforming from conventional to modern mechanized system of cultivation for changing the destiny of our poverty-stricken rural peasants spellbound his imagination from the very beginning of his career.

Before stepping into a permanent line of entrepreneurial involvement, he participated on experimental basis, in some flourishing ventures for sometime but those proved too insignificant to accommodate his big inventive ideas. He went on exploring viability of wider range of ventures seriously until a draft plan could be contemplated by him which subsequently came into being as the New Engineering Works Ltd. in 1978.

An aggressive preparation and homework was completed before taking real practical steps. Considering the unique local concentration of tea industry in Sylhet district i.e., the newly found industry specialized in tea processing machineries.

Simultaneous with manufacturing activities, the newly found Alim Industries Ltd. also highlighted Agro-machineries Development and Research as a major organizational objective for facing market challenges with a constantly updated quality of services.

Initially, Alim Industries Ltd. started with M. A. Alim Chwdhury as the Chairman, Gulam Rabbani Chowdhury as the Managing Director, Alimus Sadat Choudhury the Executive Director and Mr. Alimul Ahsan Chowdhury as a Director.

In 2004 after the bereavement of our beloved founder Chairman M. A. Alim Chowdhury, the positions of Chairman and Executive Directors were re-organized. Since then on, the founder Executive Director Alimus Sadat Chowdhury has been discharging the responsibilities of Chairman and Mr. Alimul Ahsan Chowdhury took over as Executive Director.

After increase of our business growth recently in 2011 Alim Industries Ltd. re-organizes the executive committee with Mr. Alimul Ahsan Chowdhury as the Managing Director, Alimus Sadat Chowdhury as the vice Chairman and Gulam Rabbani Chowdhury as the Chairman.
