A farewell Note, A New Doctorate journey

With effect from 15th Dec, 2019, I stepped down as Chief Executive at The Daud Group Limited to pursue and finalise my doctorate in Media and Communication at the Columbia University in New york, and to rebuild our presence in the Americas at our new US office.

2020 came with Covid-19, delaying the journey, furthering my opportunity of reflection, rebuilding a better tomorrow for The Daud Group, Hostrav, and The Afa Foundation.

My helm at the company for the last sixteen years has registered considerable success. Establishing the first ever fashion awards and furthering the umbrella social enterprise into a Global-African foundation; Hostrav into a promise brand – thus transforming The Daud Group into an eleven figure venture.

I therefore, wish great deliberations to the new shareholders, Chief Executive, Executive Director at The Afa foundation, Management teams, staff, and our huge clientele and partners that keep us tick every day. Like I said in my last staff meeting: "this is a land of milk and honey. Am certain that you will build on my achievements to further Mecca’s dream."

Every ten years comes with a renewed vision for the group.1998 – 2008, we layed a major foundation in Kenya upon which The Daud Group stands. 2009 – 2020, we have made a lasting impact in Uganda and the new team will see to a better future. 2020 – 2030, The Daud Group is living the American dream.

The next 3+7 years will be a moment of isolation in research, work, and rebuilding a new business front in the western hemisphere.

To the Kenyan team – Asanteni sana.
To the Uganda team – Mwebale nyo.
To my New york friends, family, associates, team mates, and the close Columbia university community – we got this!

Baraka A. Daud,
Outgoing Chief – The Daud Group Limited, Hostrav, The Afa Foundation
