Founded under the banner of General Homoeo Stores (GHS) in Delhi, then part of British India, Dr Hamid General Homoeo (Pvt.) Limited (HGH) has made a significant impact on the world of homeopathy. Established in 1936 in Karachi's Ram Bagh (now Aram Bagh) area, GHS’s journey is a testament to resilience, vision, and dedication to healthcare. After the partition in 1947, Dr Abdul Hamid, the visionary founder of GHS, relocated to Pakistan, where homeopathy found fertile ground and was embraced with enthusiasm by its people.
Building on a strong foundation
From 1960 to 1997, GHS was led by Dr. Abdul Moid Hamid, T.I., a stalwart in homeopathy. Under his leadership, GHS expanded its reach, becoming a beacon of ethical business practices and quality healthcare. The 1965 UAHP Act, which officially recognised homeopathy in Pakistan, was a significant milestone that positioned GHS at the forefront of this emerging healthcare sector. The success of GHS led to the establishment of Dr Hamid Homoeopathic Stores, further cementing the family’s commitment to holistic healthcare. In 1990, the incorporation of Dr Hamid General Homoeo (Pvt.) Limited marked another high point, with the company becoming synonymous with excellence in homeopathy.
Redefining ethical business practices
Dr Hamid General Homoeo (Pvt.) Limited is renowned not only for its rich history but also for its ethical standards. As the exclusive representative of M/s. Dr Willmar Schwabe GmbH & Co.

Today, it stands as one of the largest importers of homeopathic medicines in Asia, commanding approximately 70% of the market for imported homeopathic remedies in Pakistan.
