Dan Sharif is the founder of Enescorp International LLC, bringing over 40 years of experience in management, business development, and entrepreneurship. He holds a Master's degree in Administrative Science. He is an adjunct professor at DRB-Hicom Automotive University and Universiti Tenaga Nasional in Malaysia, where he shares his knowledge and experience with future industry leaders.

Dan’s exposure to global business began at a young age when he attended the Youth Responses to Globalization Forum in Copenhagen, Denmark organized by Asia-Europe Foundation. There, he had the opportunity to interact with future political, business, and social leaders, an experience that sparked his lifelong passion for international trade and cross-cultural collaboration. 

After completing his studies at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte, Dan returned to Malaysia and advanced through various leadership roles. He served as the National Entrepreneurship Institute's Executive Director and Senior Director of a government department focused on inclusive and sustainable economic development. In these roles, he promoted entrepreneurship and spearheaded initiatives to drive export growth.

Dan’s extensive travels across the country, meeting entrepreneurs and understanding their challenges, deepened his insights into business development and market dynamics. This experience played a key role in his entrepreneurial journey.

When Dan attended the Specialty Food Show in New York City for the first time a few years ago, he recognized the demand for specialty food products in the United States. This led to the founding of Enescorp International in 2018, with a focus on importing specialty food products, household items, perfumes, cosmetics, and accessories here. Dan introduced these products to the American market through trade expos, consumer shows, and online marketplaces.

Dan collaborates closely with entrepreneurial development organizations and higher learning institutions in Malaysia, offering support to companies looking to expand into the United States. He is assisting with their U.S. market entry, FDA registrations, and facilitating business partnerships across North America.
