Expectations towards a certain goal can be challenging for many of us. We strive to soften the harshness of reality through hard work and devotion. Yet, life often reveals how inconsequential our actions can be against the storms of time.
Business Outreach Magazine applauds individuals who overcome hurdles and pursue the peace and purpose of their lives.
Our strength lies in our optimism, our fulfillment in guiding others, and our joy in being proud of our achievements despite the thorns we’ve crossed. Today, we are delighted to share the inspiring journey of Mohammad Saad Anwar, co-founder of Senyar Arabian Trading Company, whose struggles and triumphs reflect immense compassion and gratitude.
Saad Anwar is a serial entrepreneur, a motivator to visionaries, a self-made millionaire, and an investor who values collaboration and trust. His journey began in 2016 when, after completing his higher secondary education, he immediately sought employment to support his family. Starting as a client relations executive at a consulting firm, he quickly gained industry insights but was let go after five months due to restructuring.
Saad Anwar then joined a startup, learning the importance of respect in the workplace and continually seeking mentorship. In 2017, he began setting up his own business, facing exploitation but using these experiences as reminders of his resilience. That same year, he met Shahzad Latif and Husnain Akbar, who became his trusted peers in founding Senyar Arabian Trading Co. Despite financial constraints, they launched their company in 2018, with Saad Anwar handling front-end operations and Shahzad providing back-end support.
In October 2021, Saudi Arabia eased regulations for foreign business ownership, propelling Senyar Arabian Trading Co. to success. By July 2022, Saad Anwar and Shahzad acquired the company, enabling Saad to establish an investment company for small and medium-sized businesses, offering mentorship and support.
In 2022, Saad Anwar and Shahzad expanded into Europe with European Segment Co. Saad’s journey, marked by betrayal and mistrust, inspired him to mentor others and open doors for aspiring entrepreneurs. He reflects on his early career, striving to achieve goals that once seemed fantastical, driven by a relentless pursuit of his dreams.
Saad Anwar, a self-taught entrepreneur, mastered business, accounts, and marketing, always finding ways to turn failure into success. His trustworthiness, kindness, and dedication to helping others fostered a family-like atmosphere in his workplace. Despite his success, Saad Anwar remains humble and supportive, embodying Albert Einstein’s quote: “Try not to become a man of success. Rather become a man of value.”
Leaders like Saad Anwar empower their teams, understanding that success comes from collective growth. Embracing diversity, inclusion, and equity, Saad Anwar encourages his staff to exceed their limits. Now an international investor, Saad Anwar urges us to look within ourselves as the authors of our own success. Starting from nothing, he has become a successful entrepreneur and self-made millionaire, inspiring countless individuals to pursue their dreams.
