The All Pakistan Stainless Steel Importers and Traders Association (APSSITA) is a national body representing stainless steel importers and traders across Pakistan. Established in 1979, the association has grown into a trusted platform that works to protect industry interests and support fair, transparent and progressive trade. With more than four decades of experience, APSSITA has played a key role in resolving policy challenges, customs duty issues and trade regulations that directly affect the stainless steel sector.

Over the years, APSSITA has worked closely with government departments, customs authorities and regulatory institutions to address problems such as import duties, product classifications and trade restrictions. The association has consistently advocated for smoother business operations, improved policy structures and fair treatment for importers nationwide. This long-term commitment has helped create a more stable environment for industries that depend on stainless steel, including medical instruments, kitchenware, home appliances, chemical processing, sugar mills and agricultural machinery.
