Nurhayati
Subakat began her career as a pharmacist at the General Hospital in
Padang. Then, she moved to Jakarta and worked as a quality control staff one of
the cosmetic companies. From here, she had initiative to build her
own business. Now, PTI already has two factories located in Tangerang and
Cibodas with 4.500 employees in Indonesia.
The product that she produced are shampoo, make-up, and baby product.
In 2006, the growth of cosmetic
products shot up above 90 percent. It had a factory covering an area of
6,5 hectares and became the biggest brand in Indonesia.
Finally, she got many awards, such as Indonesia Customer Satisfaction Award from Frontier Consulting Group and
Top Brand 2014, and from the Matahari Department Store as a local product.
Until
now, Wardah is
the only cosmetic
products in Indonesia
which upholds of “halal”
concept. Wardah has a great chance for the majority
of
Moslem in Indonesia.
But,
she still harbored a willingness to
bring their products to the International Market and compete with
cosmetics product from outside.
