Hashoo School of Hospitality Management is a dream that started with my father 40 years ago when he opened his first hotel in Islamabad. I am delighted to share with you the success and inspiration that I feel with the beginning of HSHM. This school belongs to our communities, our industry and our country – together we will continue to make this school a resounding success and a place where dreams come true.
If there is a perfect time to launch a hospitality management school in Pakistan, it is now. The Travel and Tourism Industry is an undisputed key global economic driver. The World Travel and Tourism Council Report of 2018 highlighted that the industry contributed 10.4% of Global GDP and 1 in 10 jobs worldwide. In the last decade alone, 1 in 5 of all global net jobs has been in this sector. All indicators forecast continued growth in the next decade – much faster than other economies as a whole. All this, along with the much-improved security situation and a more welcoming visa regime, shows that Pakistan is undoubtedly emerging into the international spotlight.
Hashoo Group is playing its role in empowering youth with knowledge and skill sets required at the highest levels of the hospitality industry worldwide. At HSHM, we aim to develop business managers and leaders of the future.
I welcome you to Hashoo School of Hospitality Management.
