Sahar Hashemi OBE reveals how her love of skinny lattes in ’90s New York led to her giving up her career as a lawyer and starting Coffee Republic with her brother, Bobby.
Sahar talks openly about the highs and lows of growing the business from the kitchen table to a £30 million empire with 110 American-style coffee bars, as well as the pain of leaving.
As well as mentoring executives in how to retain a start-up culture in large companies, Sahar champions more than 2,000 female founders in a movement she created – Buy Women Built – leaning on her own mantra ‘leap and the net will appear’ to form it.
