L'optik Farhat

• Quebec, Canada

• General Manager/ VP

  • Dec 2017 - May 2018

  As General Manager my corporate duties were to oversee our 50+ locations across the province of Quebec and ensure sales growth as well as create brand awareness by implementing sales and marketing strategies and developing strong relationships with our landlords to increase visibility and decrease our rents and general overhead. I worked very closely with all my regional managers as well as my sales manager to build a tight unity and create a tide that we all pushed in the same direction to achieve our common goal... Success! In my short time at L’OPTIK Farhat I achieved to build a close knit working atmosphere as well I rebranded the company by means of changing the name and logo and making it more current, structured a marketing plan that increased our visibility on the air,Tv as well as the web. That paid off as since my time at the helm we increased sales every month and brought down our expenses by renegotiating existing leases and rents and signing 8 new locations in key demographic areas with industry leading rents and tenant allowances negotiated. I also organized a company sales and product knowledge seminar for our 200+ employees which was a first for this company and that reinvigorated our team and we saw an immediate difference both in sales and in motivation, all this was done by having our suppliers sponsor the event and therefore pay for it. I have received countless testimonials by people I worked with who said I made an indelible mark on they’re working experience with me and that I helped them grow and prosper by helping them believe in themselves and gain in self confidence. My biggest strengths would definitely be sales, team building and marketing. Show less

• Senior Sales Executive

  • Aug 2016 - Dec 2017

  As a sales executive at Prime Leasing my responsibility was to ensure strong sales results as well as create a customer experience that was not common in our market segment. I was meticulous in overseeing that every client experience was a positive and productive one. I over saw all deliveries and made sure that all our clients were satisfied with their decision. Working very closely with the owner I helped alleviate stress and work load by taking initiatives that were fruitful to the business. I was a top sales performer both in units and in profit but what was most important is that I left no client indifferent and build strong client relationships. Show less



Metsuyan Sushi / Metsuyan Sushi Express / Sorsky's Deli

• Montreal, Canada Area

• Business Owner

  • Jul 2013 - Jul 2016

  This was definitely a game changer for me and helped me grow as an entrepreneur. Being involved at the retail level since I was a late teen, I experienced and achieved many things, not withstanding that I was an entrepreneur by the age of 19 yrs. The food industry showed and taught me the dedication and work ethic it takes to succeed as well as the discipline required in making decisions that were not always easy to make. In this part of my entrepreneurial life I built 2 separate restaurants with 2 completely different food genres simultaneously. 2 Sushi restaurants as well as a Deli, the 3 of which I might add are still in business and striving. I oversaw that my food costs were in check as well as labor costs and branded the 3 in such a manner that that had instant credibility and success. I was able to build a catering business through my ability to market myself and networking and also build a catering partnership with IGA that still exists today. Show less
