About the association

The Estate Developers Association Multan (EDAM) is the representative body of real estate developers in Multan and the surrounding districts of South Punjab.

The association was founded under the leadership of its Founder President, the late Muhammad Zubair Farooq Khan. In its earlier years it engaged directly with the Member Board of Revenue and the Multan Development Authority on housing law, helped shape balanced policy for the sector, and stood up for developers against unlawful action – a record that members still recall today.

After nine years of dormancy, the association was revived on 20 August 2026 at a meeting of Multan's leading developers hosted by Mehr Ali Mughal at FCI (Pvt.) Ltd on M.A. Jinnah Road. The house resolved to register the association formally, elect an executive body, and build an active, unified and legally recognised platform for the industry. Elections followed, and the present cabinet took office.

Members are developers of private housing schemes, builders, land professionals and investors who share a commitment to doing the work properly: approved layouts, honest dealing with purchasers, and development that the city can be proud of. The association is non-political and open to every bona fide estate developer operating in Multan.

Our history

Serving the developers of Multan and South Punjab.

  1. The founding years

    The association was formed to give the city's private housing developers one united voice. Under its Founder President, the late Muhammad Zubair Farooq Khan of Khan Group, it brought together builders, housing-scheme sponsors and property firms from across Multan. By 2010 it was active from its office at Saeed Centre, Kutchery Road, and it built a public presence through its own website, letterhead and Facebook page. Its motto, carried on its emblem, was ملکی ترقی میں قدم بہ قدم – step by step with the nation's progress.

  2. Representing the industry

    In its first period the association spoke for developers before the authorities that shape the housing sector. It worked with the Multan Development Authority (MDA) and the Board of Revenue, contributed to reviews of housing regulations, and helped members resolve disputes and guard against unwarranted legal action.

    On 18 November 2017 the Additional Director General of MDA met members of the Multan Estate Developers Association, committed to hold regular meetings with developers, and said their issues had been forwarded to the Housing Department – reported by The Express Tribune on 19 November 2017.

  3. A period of inactivity

    The association then lay dormant for about nine years, until its members decided to revive it.

  4. A new beginning – 2026

    On 20 August 2026 sixteen leading developers of Multan met at FCI (Private) Limited, M.A. Jinnah Road, under Mehr Ali Mughal. Several members of the original association were present, linking the new body to its founding generation. The meeting resolved to register the association under the Societies Registration Act 1860, adopt a written constitution, hold elections and fund its work through member contributions. An interim cabinet for a one-year term (2026–27) was announced in November 2026.

What we do

The association's work falls under six heads.

Representation
A single, credible voice for Multan's developers before the Multan Development Authority, PHATA, district administration, WASA, MEPCO and the Government of Punjab on matters that affect the whole sector.
A seat at the table
Developers have had no voice in drafting the housing legislation that governs them, and no representation in the Multan Chamber of Commerce and Industry. The association works to change both – so that policy is made with the sector, not around it.
Regulatory guidance
Timely briefings on the Punjab Private Housing Schemes Rules, approval procedures, amendments and notifications – so members can keep their schemes compliant and their purchasers protected.
Standards and ethics
A code of conduct for members covering approved layouts, transparent plot allotment, timely development and fair dealing with buyers, and a forum to raise concerns when standards are not met.
Dispute resolution
Mediation between members, and between members and their clients or land vendors, so that commercial disagreements are settled quickly and without needless litigation.
Networking and growth
Regular meetings, dinners and seminars that connect developers with investors, professionals, banks and suppliers – creating opportunities that no single firm could create alone.
