closely with a consultant from the UK to understand the nuances of running franchises. After five years of running local operations, we finally felt confident to start franchising and it is a model that has worked very well for our business.
What are key challenges you are faced with as you look to take Man’oushe Street to the next level?
I’d like to thank all our customers for their incredible support and love towards the brand. We are extremely grateful for their acceptance and for making Man’oushe Street a ‘household’ brand.
As the leader of a popular F&B brand, what keeps you motivated?
As you grow, the biggest challenge is to maintain quality – both in terms of the food we serve and customer service. Real estate is another critical factor; we need to be present at the right locations within the region to dominate the retail space.
In today’s evolving business landscape, it is so important to stay abreast of the changing dynamics – you have to be involved within your business 24/7; there is no downtime! Moreover, the Man’oushe Street team is so energetic; almost every day one of my team members approaches me with a new business idea or a fresh recipe – it is this kind of passion and excitement that essentially keeps me going.

What advice would you give to aspiring entrepreneurs in the region?
A comfortable life will not take you to the next level. If you have a dream, just go out there and achieve it. Don’t be scared, stay confident and surround yourself with the right people.
