Biography & Career
From the Fields of Punjab
To the Peak of Business in Indonesia.
Born as the third child of Malik Masood Ahmad and Kausar Parween, Atta Ul Karim completed his primary and secondary education in Pakistan. The spirit of entrepreneurship was instilled in him from an early age, driving him to migrate to Indonesia at the age of 14 to carry forward the carpet business his father had founded in 1997.
"The courage to migrate at a young age taught me the true meaning of adaptation, resilience, and how to build a network from scratch in a foreign land."
In 2009, he took a major leap by establishing Al-Barkat Karpet. With sharp business instinct and premium service quality, the business grew exponentially. Today, Al-Barkat has cemented its position with branches in 13 strategic cities across Indonesia — including Jakarta, Bogor, Bandung, Yogyakarta, and Surabaya — offering world-class carpet collections from Turkey, Iran, Afghanistan, and Kazakhstan.
