3. HISTORY OF NAVANA GROUP
Navana Group is one of the largest group in Bangladesh and has a strong and distinguished
business history. In the year 1953 Alhaj Jahurul Islam, one of the dynamic business magnets of
Bangladesh started his journey through establishment of a construction company, named Bengal
Development Corporation (BDC) and soon enough successfully expanded his business into real-
estate and automobile sector by setting up new companies i.e., Eastern Housing Limited and
Navana Limited respectively. After the inception of Navana Limited (pre-arranged through
agreement of TOYOTA of Japan under an exclusive distributorship, to market Toyota cars in the
then East Pakistan) in the year 1964, the business throve rapidly and formation of Islam Group
took place under the Chairmanship of Alhaj Jahurul Islam.
However, by dint of riveting leadership and vast knowledge on effective public relation, Mr. Shafiul
Islam Kamal (Youngest brother of Jahurul Islam) joined Islam Group as a Director in the year 1976.
He had effective contribution on the business development of Islam Group and helped it to grow
as one of the largest business groups in Bangladesh.
For instance, in the late 60's, the group entered into an exclusive distributor franchise with HINO
Motors of Japan and was able to attain a significant market share in commercial transportation
sector. At present, HINO is the symbol of prestige as well as a safe and reliable medium of
transport. Besides, in early 80's, the group set up Aftab Automobiles Ltd. to assemble Toyota and
HINO vehicles for Bangladesh market, which, with the passage of time turned out to be the largest
private sector automobile assembling plant in Bangladesh.
After the decease of Mr. Jahurul Islam in the year 1995, Mr. Shafiul Islam Kamal emerged into a
separate business entity from Islam Group in 1996 and established a new group named Navana
Group taking the Navana Limited and Aftab Automobiles Limited as its strategic business unit.
Navana Group was born and found its new chairman Mr. Shafiul Islam Kamal.
