At the ninth green, Francis J. Mitchell [4] received a telegram informing him he had lost all his money. Already 60 years old at the time, with three children to provide for, he decided to seek his fortune in India. This he found, though not without trials and tribulations, in a 720-acre plot of land near Renala Khurd, Okara District, which he leased from the Punjab government. This would become the first ever Mitchell’s fruit farm. Mr. Mitchell and his sons, Leonard and Richard, originally tried their luck with vine fruits, but switched to growing citrus fruits when the former proved unworkable. Luckily, citrus fruits were a success, and the lease was extended in 1930, allowing the company-Indian Mildura Fruit Farms Limited- to be registered in 1933. Future outlookMitchell's was one of the first food products companies to get an ISO 9001 quality accreditation in Pakistan. It manufactures and packages grocery items including fruit drinks, canned fruits and vegetables, sauces, pickles, jams and squashes. The company exports its products to the US, UK and the Middle Eastern countries. Mitchell's is one of the leading food products manufacturers and exporters in Pakistan.[1] Mitchell's Foods is traded on the Pakistan Stock Exchange.[5] Company brandsSome of them are listed below:
