About Us
Chief Executive Officer
There are more young CEOs today than ever before—whether through substantial inheritance, family-run enterprises, or their own entrepreneurial achievements. However, the path becomes considerably more challenging for women. Despite these hurdles, countless inspiring stories continue to motivate others to reach for more. One such remarkable individual is Zainab Shafiq, who is widely recognized as one of the youngest CEOs in Pakistan.
Zainab has been fortunate to receive strong support and valuable guidance. Her current passion for chocolate has inspired her to launch a chocolate academy and venture into entrepreneurship. She now manages a digital storefront and actively maintains her social media presence to engage with a growing audience.
Her vision is to create chocolate that caters to the refined tastes of all connoisseurs—including those who are lactose-intolerant or follow a vegan lifestyle. Her unwavering goal is to deliver a product that is pure, authentic, and far removed from mass industrial production.
"Despite balancing her high school education and another small business, Zainab is tirelessly dedicating herself to running Pakistan's first dedicated chocolate and pastry academy. Her relentless determination and late-night efforts are the driving force behind its success."
At the International Chocolate and Pastry Academy, children enjoy hands-on learning experiences in a cutting-edge kitchen environment. The academy's dynamic curriculum offers fresh classes every week and continually evolves to include new themes, recipes, and techniques—all presented through engaging and enjoyable activities.
But what does this mean for you? Zainab is committed not only to crafting delicious chocolate but also to sharing her passion with the world. She offers workshops for all ages and hosts tasting events—where you can always count on delightful free samples!
Most recently, Zainab represented Pakistan at the prestigious Global Youth Tourism Summit in Italy. The event featured interactive activities aligned with the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals, highlighting the intersection between tourism and sustainable practices.
