Soundous Moufakir, Actress & CEO of MoroMaa, Raises Rs 1.5 Crore from AJVC

MoroMaa’s proposition is rooted in Soundous’ personal connection to Morocco and her experience of its beauty traditions. The brand seeks to bring the ingredients, rituals, and cultural context of Moroccan personal care to Indian consumers, while developing products suited to the local market.

Soundous, who holds an MBA in Finance, is building MoroMaa as a solo founder and CEO. Her background across finance and the entertainment industry informs the brand’s two central identity pillars: Artists and Moroccan. While the Artists proposition connects the brand to the founder’s entertainment background and cultural networks, the Moroccan proposition focuses on the authenticity of its ingredients and the beauty traditions behind them.

We believe the category has room to develop and are looking forward to supporting the company as it builds its product portfolio, distribution and customer base.”

With the latest investment, MoroMaa plans to focus on product development, expanding its reach and building awareness around Moroccan beauty in India. The brand’s longer-term vision is to establish M Beauty as a recognisable category within the country’s growing beauty and personal care landscape, while retaining authenticity in its sourcing and product development.
