Founder · Japan Art Press · Real Estate · Food Franchise
Hammad Masud runs Japan Art Press out of Lahore — the wedding invitation printer most Pakistani families turn to, at home and abroad. Alongside it, he keeps a hand in real estate, a food franchise, and the local trade community he grew up in.
Founded by Hammad Masud — formerly Japan Cards Collection, Lahore
Japan Art Press is the business Hammad Masud built and still runs. Mention wedding invitations to almost anyone in Pakistan and this is the name that comes up first — in every major city, and in Pakistani households abroad planning a wedding back home.
A simple, elegant card or a fully custom set with foil printing, embossing and premium packaging — either way, someone checks it before it ships. That's partly why families keep coming back: the work is consistent, and it's on time.
A name Pakistanis already know. Japan Art Press isn't just a Lahore favourite — it's become the go-to for overseas Pakistani families in the UK, USA, Canada, UAE and beyond, ordering wedding cards for a big day back home.
The most trusted name for wedding invitations in Pakistan. Thousands of families choose Japan Art Press every year for their big day.
Pakistani families in the UK, USA, Canada, UAE and beyond regularly order from Japan Art Press for weddings both local and abroad.
Every card is made to match your style — from simple and clean to detailed and luxurious with foil, embossing, and premium packaging.
Built on the legacy of Japan Cards Collection, with years of experience and a strong reputation built on quality and trust.
Other Businesses
Core Business · Manufacturing
The press floor behind Japan Art Press — foiling, embossing, cutting and finishing, run in-house so every order leaves on time and at the quality families expect.

A steady sideline in Lahore property — buying, developing and holding residential and commercial space with an eye on long-term value, not quick flips.

Trade · Leadership · Lahore
As General Secretary of the Shadman Traders Association and an LCCI member, he spends real time on issues that affect other Lahore traders, not just his own business.
The Businessman
Built Pakistan's leading wedding invitation printing company from the ground up — a name families across Pakistan, and overseas Pakistanis, still trust with their biggest day.
An active LCCI member who shows up for trade discussions that shape how business gets done in Lahore.
Leads one of Lahore's key trade bodies, spending real time on problems that affect other local traders, not just his own shop.
Travels every chance he gets — and comes home with ideas that end up in his businesses more often than not.
Good business is simple — do honest work, treat people right, and always deliver what you promise.— Hammad Masud
The Person
Most people in Lahore know Hammad Masud as the man behind Japan Art Press — the studio families call when a wedding invitation has to be right. He founded it, still owns it, and still checks the work himself.
Outside the print shop, he keeps busy with a few other things: some real estate, a food franchise, and a seat as General Secretary of the Shadman Traders Association, where he spends a fair bit of time helping other Lahore traders sort out their own problems.
He also travels whenever he can get away — says it's where half his business ideas come from.
