18 - Ehsan Saya - Using E-Commerce for Good in Pakistan

The Localist Pakistan Podcast

Ehsan Saya is an old friend of The Localists, and he's also the Managing Director of Pakistan's largest e-commerce website, Daraz (you might've heard of it).

We spend plenty of time reminiscing about the good old days, but we also talk about what he was up to before Daraz, and what he has planned for the future. Ehsan is a strong believer in the ability of businesses to create positive change in communities, whether that's upskilling people, or providing new opportunities. He talks to us about how that's central to the success of the businesses he's been involved with.

Ehsan is also a coffee snob, and we're always down for a good conversation about our favorite brews.
