From the factory floor, not the other way round
In 1998, Mr. Muhammad Rashid Anwar drew on firsthand experience inside Pakistan's textile and towel manufacturing sector to solve a problem he knew intimately: the complexity of running a factory's stock, production, sales and accounts on paper registers. He founded Linksoft and built its first ERP systems in Visual FoxPro, purpose-made for the textile industry.
Over the next two decades Linksoft grew quietly, earning the trust of factory owners who ran their businesses on our systems every day. Several of those first clients from the late 1990s still run Linksoft systems today — that continuity is the milestone we value most.
As technology moved, so did we: Linksoft migrated its products from offline desktop applications to secure, cloud-based web platforms, accessible from the office, the factory floor or home. That shift opened doors far beyond textile.
Today, led by CEO Musbah Rashid, Linksoft serves schools, manufacturers, retailers and businesses across Pakistan — 35+ clients and counting — digitising their operations with custom ERP systems, making them FBR-compliant, and building the software their work runs on.
