Nawaid Chowdhari
With over 20 years of experience across South Africa, Dubai, and Pakistan, I am a marketing and sales leader known for building brands and driving real, lasting growth across the FMCG and retail sectors. After earning my master’s degree in London, I moved to South Africa for work experiences that shaped my global outlook and leadership style.
Beginning my career in door-to-door sales, I learned the business from the ground up. At Tradeport Distribution, I rose from Manager to Director, helping grow annual revenue from 30 million to over a billion. Later, at Multibrands as Sales Director, I increased turnover to 36 million per year. In Pakistan, I transformed Roshan’s Furniture, expanding its network and increasing sales by 30%.
