History[edit]

Karachi Bakery was founded in 1953 by Khanchand Ramnani, a Sindhi migrant who moved to Hyderabad from Karachi during the partition of India in 1947. The bakery was named after the city of Karachi. Ramnani opened the first Karachi Bakery of Hyderabad next to Seena Bakery in Moazzam Jahi Market.[5][6]
