From Struggles to Success: Mohammad’s Journey to Building His Own Bakery

Posted in: 

Mohammad began his journey with strong ambitions but faced a challenging period when he struggled to find job opportunities. His breakthrough came when he joined Anera’s entrepreneurship training program supported by UNICEF. Through the program, Mohammad entered the world of pastry making, training at several bakeries in the Bekaa region. He learned the craft, how to manage a business, control costs and build a brand. Today, Mohammad is applying those skills to his own bakery which he founded himself. Looking ahead, he dreams of expanding his small bakery into multiple branches.
