Women entrepreneurship: Ghada Haidar challenges lack of capital
In its issue of today, Al Akhbar newspaper spotlighted the career path of Ghada Haidar, who decided to shift from the knotty trade of household linens to the more popular sales of women’s clothing and apparel when she found that the probabilities of success or failure in both are nearly the same. Ghada, like many Lebanese, faced setbacks and was impeded by the lack of capital needed to start any trade, Al Akhbar wrote. But unlike others, she did not resort to personal loans, but instead relied on the strong and trustworthy relations she built with local merchants throughout her career. She managed to get products from dealers on consignment and reimburse later. Al Akhbar highlighted Ghada’s unceasing drive for accomplishment. The young ambitious woman refused to give up hope. But despite that the linen business was not to her expectations, she did not fight desperately to beat challenges and get successful in this field. She was well aware that exhausting herself physically and financially is pointless, hence she braced herself for ending the business and trying something new.
