Rahim Ali is the Managing Director and founder of Korutek Engineering Ltd, a specialist engineering company delivering advanced cooling and freezing solutions to the global food production sector.

Since establishing the business in 2016, he has grown Korutek into a trusted partner for major manufacturers, recognised for agile engineering, technical innovation, and high-performance systems.

With over 15 years’ experience in industrial freezing and processing, Rahim’s background spans project delivery, commercial leadership and solution development. He began his career with global engineering group GEA and has since worked both within and alongside competing organisations across the sector, delivering complex projects and gaining a detailed understanding of industry practices, limitations and opportunities for improvement.

Rahim’s leadership is defined by a clear focus on solving the shortcomings of traditional industry approaches. By identifying gaps in both equipment capability and customer service, he has positioned Korutek to deliver engineering solutions that are more responsive, more efficient and better aligned to real-world production demands.

He also led the integration of the Eurotek brand, securing technical knowledge behind a significant installed base of equipment worldwide. This has strengthened Korutek’s ability to support and upgrade existing systems while informing the development of new, next-generation solutions.

In addition to his work in engineering, Rahim has founded and developed businesses in the publishing and food supply chain sectors, reflecting a broader entrepreneurial mindset and a strong track record in building and growing ventures.

As Managing Director, Rahim leads Korutek’s strategic direction, with a focus on innovation, capability development and sustainable growth.
