The Sharjah Business Women Council (SBWC), an affiliate of NAMA Women Advancement Establishment’s (NAMA), is supporting thirteen female business owners at the debut edition of “Azyan Exhibition and Conference” for Beauty, Fashion and Wellness at Al Jawaher Reception and Convention Centre, to showcase a wide range of their products and services over its four-day run from April 18-21.

The shortlisted SBWC members are exhibiting their specialist services and products including fashion, jewellery, garments, wellness products and services, alongside 125 other exhibitors.
