Karakoram Saffron produces premium‑quality saffron in Gilgit, selling both stigmas and bulbs across Pakistan and international markets. Founded by four women cultivating saffron on 16 kanal leased land, the venture not only introduces a high‑value crop to Gilgit‑Baltistan but also creates independent income streams for women. By combining cultural authenticity with economic empowerment, Karakoram Saffron is driving sustainable agriculture and strengthening the region’s economic outlook.
