Punjab
Software Development for Lahore Businesses
Lahore is Pakistan's second-largest business city and, for most of what we build, the request looks different from Karachi's. Karachi sends us trading, logistics and port-side operations; Lahore sends us garment units, retail chains, restaurants with several branches, schools and colleges, property developers and a fast-growing services sector. The system a five-branch restaurant needs is not the system a freight forwarder needs, and this page is about the Lahore version.
Short answer
A2Z Global builds software for Lahore businesses — ERP and CRM systems, websites, ecommerce stores and mobile apps — from its Karachi office. Lahore clients work with us over WhatsApp and video calls at the same price as Karachi clients, with a written scope before work starts and a working link to open during the build.
/Who asks, and for what
What businesses in Lahore ask us to build
| Business | What they ask for | What we build |
|---|---|---|
| Garments and textile units | Order tracking from fabric to finished piece, job-work with outside stitching and dyeing units, and costing per order. | ERP with bill of materials, job-work vouchers and per-order costing — the manufacturing shape described on our ERP for manufacturing units article. |
| Retail chains and franchises | One stock figure across branches, transfers between shops, and a sales view the owner can open on a phone. | Multi-branch POS and stock with central purchasing and branch-level reports. |
| Restaurants with several branches | Recipes tied to stock so wastage shows up, and delivery orders from apps and WhatsApp landing in one place. | POS with recipe-level inventory, kitchen display and a single order queue across channels. |
| Schools, colleges and academies | Fee collection with reminders, attendance, results, and parents who stop calling the office for information. | School management system with fee ledgers, SMS and WhatsApp notices and a parent portal. |
| Property developers and estate agencies | Plot and unit inventory, instalment plans, and follow-up on leads that currently live in agents' phones. | Real estate CRM with inventory, payment-plan schedules and automated follow-ups. |
| Services firms and agencies | Quotes, projects, invoices and recoveries in one system instead of four. | CRM plus invoicing with Punjab sales tax on services handled at the invoice line. |
/Invoicing
Sales tax on services in Lahore
Sales tax on services in Lahore is provincial, administered by the Punjab Revenue Authority (PRA), separately from FBR's federal sales tax on goods. A business that sells both — a restaurant selling food and a delivery service, say — may be invoicing under two regimes, and the system has to know which line is which. We confirm your registrations during discovery and build invoicing to them; rates and thresholds are yours and your tax adviser's to confirm, not something a software vendor should quote.
Payments, couriers and FBR digital invoicing are the same across Pakistan — they are on the Pakistan page.
/How we work with you
Working with a Karachi team from Lahore
Our office is in Karachi, a two-hour flight away. Lahore projects run on WhatsApp, Zoom or Teams, with a named engineer as your point of contact and a working link you can open while the system is being built. For projects where a site visit genuinely helps — a factory floor, a multi-branch rollout — we come to Lahore; that is planned and priced in the scope rather than sprung on you later. Most Lahore clients never need us on site, and none pay more for being outside Karachi.
/Before you hire anyone
What to ask a software company in Lahore — us included
- Ask who will actually write the code. Many Lahore agencies sell in Lahore and subcontract elsewhere, which is fine if you know, and a problem when you find out at the first bug.
- Ask for a written scope before a price. A number given on the first call is a guess, and you will pay the difference later.
- Ask where the code and the data will live, and whether you own both. You should, in writing.
- Ask what support costs after launch, per month, before you sign — not after.
- Ask to speak to a client with a system two years old. Anyone can show a launch; fewer can show something still running.

In Pakistan/FAQ
Working with A2Z Global from Lahore
Do you have an office in Lahore?
No. Our office is in Karachi. Lahore clients work with us on WhatsApp and video calls, with a working link to open during the build, and we visit when a project genuinely needs it — planned into the scope, not billed as a surprise.
Does it cost more to work with you from Lahore?
No. Business websites start from PKR 35,000 for every Pakistani client, and larger systems get one fixed written quote based on scope — modules, users, integrations and data migration — not on which city you are in.
Can the system handle Punjab sales tax on services?
Yes. Invoicing is built to your registrations — PRA for services in Punjab, FBR for goods — so each invoice line carries the right tax. We confirm the registrations with you and your tax adviser during discovery rather than assuming them.
Which businesses in Lahore do you work with most?
Garment and textile units, retail chains, multi-branch restaurants, schools and academies, property developers and services firms. The table on this page shows what each typically asks for and what we build for it.
How do we start?
Send us what your team does on a normal day and where the same information gets typed twice. That is enough for a first call, after which you get a written scope and one quote.
