About Jiba Connect
JIBA is an International Association of businessmen and industrialists of Khoja Shia Ithna Asheri Community formed in 1991, when a few of our brothers got together in London to discuss the idea of launching an economic forum for the community. Alhamdulillah, the delegates participating at the said conference were very enthusiastic about the idea and they resolved to form "JIBA". Since then, we have come a long way with formation of JIBA INTERNATIONAL registered in United Kingdom and Chapters in Aden, Australia, Bangladesh, Dubai, India, Iran, Karachi, Kenya, Madagascar, Malaysia, New Zealand, Ontario, Reunion Island, Singapore, Tanzania, United Kingdom, Uganda and USA.
