Lawyer turned entrepreneur, Sahar founded Coffee Republic, the UK's first US style coffee bar chain with her brother and built it into one of the UK's most recognised high street brands with a turnover of £30m. Giving up highly professional jobs, they staked everything on a dream – and made Coffee Republic one of the main players in the 'coffee revolution' that transformed a nation of tea drinkers into one obsessed with 'triple decaf half-caf lattes'. Sahar left the day to day management of Coffee Republic in 2001 and wrote a book called 'Anyone Can Do It – Building Coffee Republic from a Kitchen Table' which tackles some of the fears and answers some of the elusive questions about what it really takes to become an entrepreneur. In 2005, Sahar launched a new company, Skinny Candy, which is a confectionary company whose products include low-fat, low-calorie sweets.
Sahar inspires international business audiences with her unique story.
