In today’s world—where the growth of businesses happens in moments and competition in personal branding intensifies day by day—there are individuals who are not only focused on their own success, but who also strive to open a path for others.
Mozhdeh Shekarisaz is one of these remarkable individuals. She is a woman who has learned how to turn small experiences into major pathways and how to use every opportunity to learn and build a stronger professional future.
Mozhdeh Shekarisaz’s career path began in 2009. In that same year, she joined the shareholders of the international group Pars Pendar Nehad and entered the world of business and education. This beginning marked the start of activities that later led to the significant expansion of her commercial network.
Through years of effort—by expanding partnerships and participating in various projects—she eventually became the manager of the Canadian branch of this organization. Together with her brother, she was able to create hundreds of job opportunities in both Iran and Canada—an effort that had a direct impact on education, entrepreneurship, and employment development in both countries.
After immigrating to Canada, her activities took a new direction. In addition to her managerial responsibilities, Mozhdeh Shekarisaz continued her professional career as an international business development consultant and became involved in entrepreneurial projects with global scalability. Her primary focus has been supporting innovative ideas, sustainable development, and creating a foundation for future-oriented businesses—an approach that has established her as a prominent figure among immigrant entrepreneurs and leaders in Canada’s business ecosystem.
After settling in Vancouver, Mozhdeh Shekarisaz, alongside her husband, founded the brands Amberdo Café and Lombardo Trattoria Italiana.
Amberdo Café is not just a café; professional management, high quality, a warm atmosphere, and respect for the environment allowed this brand to quickly secure a strong position in Vancouver, leading to the opening of new branches.
Lombardo Trattoria Italiana, with its authentic Italian cuisine and modern management standards, was also able to capture a significant share of Vancouver’s restaurant market.
These two establishments are part of the franchising strategy of Mozhdeh Shekarisaz, aimed at expanding Iranian-Canadian brands in the international market.
One of the most notable characteristics of Mozhdeh Shekarisaz is that she does not consider herself merely a “trainer.” She acts more as a mentor and a partner in growth—someone who has walked the path and openly shares her experiences.
In her workshops and programs, there is no repetition of cliché phrases. Mozhdeh discusses the kinds of insights that many have lived through but few teach practically—from the art of real networking to professional presence in business meetings and the correct method of building a personal brand.
One of the latest events, Business PR Seminar, was held in collaboration with Amberdo in Vancouver. This event was not merely a gathering—it was a real space for connection, interaction, and practical learning about public relations and business growth.
The seminar was held on December 6, 2025, at the North Vancouver branch of Amberdo Café. Its main purpose was to create an opportunity for entrepreneurs, newcomers, and business professionals to become familiar with business models in Canada, brand development, low-risk investments, and immigration pathways.
Participants came from various backgrounds: business owners, newcomers, active women, students, and individuals seeking to enter the entrepreneurial world. The presentations were practical and based on real experiences—topics that cannot be found in books and emerge only from firsthand experience.
Feedback showed that many attendees left the event with more motivation and clearer direction, and even new collaborations were formed among participants.
Mozhdeh Shekarisaz is a symbol of a generation of Iranian women who have viewed immigration, building a new path, and competing globally not as threats, but as opportunities. Today, she is not only progressing on her own path, but is also committed to helping others be seen, move forward, and shine.
If you are thinking about building a personal brand, improving your professional presence, or learning the principles of public relations and networking, following her work can be truly beneficial.
