Her appointment reflects the company’s talent diversity culture as well as its capacity to create leaders from within.
Narmeen has worked for Mondelez International for 17 years, holding various senior category and leadership positions in Pakistan and Dubai. She was previously the Managing Director of Mondelez Pakistan, where she was responsible for restructuring the Pakistan business and remarkable growth over the last three years. She was also vital in the establishment of the chocolate category in Pakistan, eventually pushing Cadbury Dairy Milk to market leader status in the country.
“Mondelēz has established a strong foundation in both markets as a category leader, an employer of choice, as well as an important contributor to our global innovation and supply chain. I am delighted to have an opportunity to build on these fundamentals while bringing new perspectives to accelerate our growth and extend meaningful progress in line with our environmental, social and governance responsibilities,” said Narmeen.
Narmeen’s appointment aligns with the company’s efforts to improve its sustainability.

As part of its commitment to deliver enhanced outcomes as a sustainable snacking company, Mondelez expects to make additional strategic investments and increase partnership with the government, industry, and society.
