PRAN Potato Chips

PRAN Potato Chips are a prominent product of the PRAN-RFL Group, one of Bangladesh's largest and most successful conglomerates. The brand was founded in 1981 by Major General Amjad Khan Chowdhury with a vision to revolutionize the nation's food manufacturing industry by empowering rural farmers through contract farming. The name "PRAN" stands for Programme for Rural Advancement Nationally, reflecting its original mission to support agricultural development in Bangladesh.

Today, the brand has grown into a global presence, exporting to over 145 countries. While its primary manufacturing base remains in Bangladesh, the group has expanded its production footprint by opening facilities in India (notably in Tripura and Kolkata) to serve the South Asian market more efficiently. As of 2026, the company continues to be a family-led enterprise headquartered in Dhaka, maintaining its status as a leading player in the global food and beverage industry while remaining the largest employer in its home country.
