Ladies and gentlemen,

Northern Alberta…..

Here comes the nominees from northern Alberta for AC Awards 2022.

Our 1st category is Entrepreneur of the Year:

Ahmed Ainab

Ahmed Ainab immigrated to Canada from Somalia in 1994 with his wife Laila. As a new immigrant, Mr. Ainab works in different jobs, just to ensure that his five Children attain the most gracious life they can. After various jobs, Mr. Ainab continued to encounter new immigrants who are struggling with language and trying to find jobs.

In 2006, he decided to establish his own company and help others get employed. He started his company called Ainab Cleaning Services. Mr. Aninab is the founder and owner of the company. Since then, he employed over 100 employees, predominantly from new immigrants with premigrationa and ma;gages disadvantages.

Most of the demographics that he employed and continues to support are black women from continental Africa. Mr. Ainab lives in northeast Edmonton with his wife and his five children.

Due to his courage and commitment to support black immigrant women in job placement and supporting them with employment during their first years in the country, I find Mr. Ainab is well deserving to be the Entrepreneur of the year 2022.
