According to Umar, his interest in starting a business came after watching his father’s friend explaining to his father on how to start a business on Shopee.“I’ve learnt how to talk to customers, and I’ve learned how to properly manage my shop by bringing in new products.

This was due to the lack of devices their family had as they needed to share them amongst five siblings who are still in school.“He did ask me to buy him a new phone but looking at the current situation, we cannot afford it. Umar is thankful to everyone who has helped him and supported his business. ― Picture courtesy of Nurul Huda“Umar loves to watch and learn.
