Mother and Daughter Egyptian-Canadian Entrepreneurs Amal & Logaina bring Egypt’s Traditional Drinks to North America – Nuba.

Amal Soliman and Logaina El Kattan’s beverage company Nuba.

Egyptian mother and daughter emigrated to Canada 10 years ago, and they took with them one of their most cherished memories of home — special herbal drinks from the Middle East.

From brewing hibiscus and other infused drinks to share with their new neighbours in Toronto, Amal Soliman and Logaina El Kattan are now taking their beverage operation, Nuba, to the next level.after winning C$75,000 in backing from business reality-TV show Dragon’s Den.

Ms El Kattan, a graduate of the University of Toronto’s business school, is now in the process of acquiring a master’s degree in business administration from Duke University in the US.

Despite all their success, Ms El Kattan does not think they have scratched the surface of what she and her mother have envisioned for Nuba.
