While Choitrams, one of Dubai’s leading supermarket chains, was founded by Thakurdas Pagarani in West Africa in 1944, his son LT Pagarani is the force behind its impressive transformation over the years, especially in the GCC. It boasts about 39 stores in the UAE alone. Apart from this, Pagarani is also known for his philanthropic efforts with Choitrams donating millions of dollars to the UN World Food Program and school meals for children in Jordan.
