TAMPA, FL — Unissa Badar with Badar Hair & All was named INDO-US Businesswoman of the Year by the Indo-US Chamber of Commerce of Tampa Bay at the 2015 Banyan Ball. Badar opened her beauty boutique at Fowler Plaza South in 2006 and has grown it from 1200 square feet to over 7200 square feet. “Badar is a shining example of the success of the entrepreneur and small business,” stated Florida Retail Partners Leasing Director Pattie DeWitt. “As a local business ourselves it is so fulfilling to see the recognition and growth of one of our clients. Badar’s boutique at Fowler Plaza South is a mainstay of the community.”

“The greatest asset to my business is my employees,” said Badar. “I see them as my co-workers. They do wonderful job making each customer feel special. My passion is to make people feel good about their selves. I wanted to help other women to understand that it is okay to take time for yourself & do things that make you feel good. As mothers, wives, sisters and daughters we always put ourselves last. The goal of my business today has been the same from inception - I love to help others & make women realize that they are special. The majority of my coworkers are female & this business has enabled me to help them to achieve their dreams of success and to provide for their families. We all have so many qualities and beauty within and I just like to make them realize that.”
