Mrs. Manal Muammar has managed to adapt her practical and academic
experience in beekeeping in a small economic project to produce
natural cosmetics made from beehives and honey products.
In a statement to SANA correspondent Mrs. Muammar, stated that she
began working in beekeeping some 24 years ago and was affiliated with
the Arab Beekeepers’ Union in 2017, where she started producing honey
and other beehive products.
She explained that through her participation in most international
conferences of the Arab Beekeepers’ Union, festivals and local
exhibitions, she was introduced to experts of Syrian, Arab and foreign
beekeepers and she has gained considerable experience enabling her to
create her own project through which she aspires to offer products
that match the quality of international brands.
She went on to say, “I entered the world of skin and hair care after
joining many specialized academic courses. I have managed to make
handmade healthy chemical-free shampoo and conditioner from natural
herbal extracts, honey, propolis, pollen and beeswax, as well as
handcrafting soap from olive oil, distilled oils, herbal extracts and
beehive products.
She hoped that this product with its healthy natural ingredients will
take the lead in the local market, noting that it will be put on the
domestic market after completing the necessary procedures.
Muammar asserted that this special project provided her with a good
financial return and created new prospects for her to work, develop
her expertise and skills and enable her to learn about the areas of
utilization of beehive products.
