Shaikh Brothers was established by Mr. Abdul Sattar in 1960. It started out with a small firm of import and export. In the beginning SB started exporting dry fruits and hand made carpets to different parts of the world and importing tyres and fire extinguishers from Japan and other different countries. Soon the interest in import of tyres was increased more than the exports.
Mr. Shaikh was affiliated to some well known brands in the world, B.F. Good Rich and Yokohama. By seeing his performance and devotion Mr. Shaikh has been given the sole distribution of Yokohama Tyres for all over Pakistan. Shaikh then took Yokohama to the No.1 position in the Pakistan market.

He then started importing spare parts along with tyres. At start he imported several different brand car parts but soon settled for Suzuki. He imported parts from Japan, Thailand, Taiwan and other origins of Asia, and established a firm under the name of Basit Motors, whose main concern was to look after spare parts business. Brands like Bando, NGK, ART, and Daitchi are still affiliated with the firm. Basit Motors is one of the leading importers of spare parts from Japan, Taiwan, Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore and now China.
