Upon his return to Lebanon from Canada in 2008, Roger Chalhoub and his wife Nena introduced the new Canadian high-end kitchenware concept “Cuisine Santé” to Lebanon. Initially, as the mother of two young children, Nena chose to play a minimal role in running the business. But in 2011, when they decided to introduce yet another new concept to Lebanon, she decided to enroll in the “Growing a Business” workshop offered by AMIDEAST’s Cisco Entrepreneur Institute to refresh her business skills.
