Story of a MBA student who turned gift-wrapping into booming business

In a society where self-expression and power are usually reserved for men, it’s hard for a woman to run a business. But Samar Shawal, 25, is trying to change this by creating the space for the women in the field of business.

Since childhood she was interested in setting up her own venture because as she says being an independent working woman gives her joy.

Samar an MBA graduate from Islamic University of Science and Technology is running a gift hamper service outlet on the name of Ribbons where she wraps the gifts items according to the desires of clients and delivers them at their homes.

After a lot of market research and discussion with family and friends, in April 28 she decided to setup gift hampering outlet on the name of Ribbons where they pack gifts on the will of customers and deliver them on their given address.

Initially Samar was a bit worried because this was almost a new concept in Kashmir but with every passing day the response was overwhelming and presently Samar is earning good.

Initially she was bit worried because a girl going to shop fronts dealing with customers at such a young age is not so common in Kashmir but with each passing day, she got an overwhelming response from large number of customers and appreciation from large number of people that boosted her confidence.

Ribbons  started from Instagram and Facebook page on the name of Ribbons by Samar Shawl. On social media, she has huge number of followers and people also place orders.

Recently Samar has started trousseau packing, stage decoration and premium dates packaging for Nikkah Majlis, which she calls khazir waan.

In future, she is planning to open a store somewhere in the heart of city.

Samar believes that women in Kashmir should know their capabilities and should make fullest use of it by every means. Although at times people will try to demotivate but one has to remain focused towards her goal with full dedication and determination

Woman can deal with her family and can also pursue her dreams. There are ample opportunities available to them through which they can change the world and can set an example for the generations to come.
