Sonya’s joined by Kazi Abidur Rahman, the CEO of Sunnamusk, an Arabian perfume brand based in London. Kazi and his brothers started selling perfumes at market stalls back in 2009, which has since grown into a multi-million-pound business!
Kazi and his two brothers Kazi Shafiqur and Kazi Luthfur Rahman had always wanted to set up a perfumery and finally took the leap in 2009 after they clubbed together £600 to buy raw essences from Egypt, and sold them on. They eventually got a stall in Whitechapel Market and eventually went on to host a kiosk in the Westfield shopping centre in London. They now supply their products all across the world and have an expected turnover of £10 million in 2022. Sonya finds out how the Kazi brothers created the Sunnamusk empire.
