      <link>https://english.aaj.tv/news/330389926/shark-tank-pakistan-sets-world-record-with-largest-deal-in-history</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Shark Tank Pakistan has made history by facilitating a record-breaking investment deal worth Rs150 crore. The recipient of this substantial funding is SARAAF, a global trading company that has captured the attention of investors with its innovative business model and ambitious goals.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;SARAAF secured Rs80 crore for a 20% equity stake, along with Rs70 crore in exchange for a 3% royalty.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This unprecedented deal not only reflects the confidence investors have in SARAAF’s potential but also highlights Pakistan’s growing prominence in the global entrepreneurial landscape.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;With over 25 years of experience, SARAAF specializes in connecting Central Asian suppliers with international markets, particularly in exporting premium Onyx, Cotton, and minerals.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The company’s vision of becoming Asia’s largest B2B sourcing platform has received a significant boost from this investment.&lt;/p&gt;
