Who is Nadia Suliaman? The Apprentice 2025 candidate and salon owner
Could Nadia be Lord Sugar's next business partner?

It's time to set your alarms for 9pm, as The Apprentice is returning to TV screens for another exciting episode.
With the 2025 season now on its fourth episode, three candidates have already left the process, and one candidate will be doing all she can to remain in the competition for as long as she can.
And that candidate is Nadia Suliaman, who plans to dive into whatever challenges the series has to offer - but who is she?
Read on to learn more about Nadia Suliaman as she appears on The Apprentice 2025.
Who is Nadia Suliaman?

Occupation: Knightsbridge salon chain
Location: London, originally Swansea
Nadia Suliaman is the owner of a salon chain in Knightsbridge, and hails from Swansea.
Nadia has an impressive list of celebrity regulars, and she credits her salon chain as her biggest business success to date.
After quitting her job in 2020, she invested all her money into starting a chain of hair salons, and within one year, she expanded to five different locations across London.
"Lord Sugar should invest in my business because of my ability to turn dreams into reality," Nadia said.
"If I had listened to the world, I would never have started my own business. The business to date has proven growth even with adverse conditions such as COVID during a time when most of the high street collapsed."
What is Nadia Suliaman's business plan?
Asked what her business plan for Lord Sugar is, Nadia said: "Introducing a new luxury product range with a twist, which incorporates an online application and members club for hairdressers, barbers and customers to interact with each other.
"The idea is to take the customer on the full journey and to be recognised as a one-stop destination for all hair, beauty barbering and retail product needs. The second element of the business plan is to expand into more locations across the UK and globally."
Does Nadia Suliaman have social media?
She does! Nadia Suliaman can be followed on Instagram @nadia_forbici, where she currently has over 5,000 followers.
Her salon, Forbici, can be followed on Instagram also @forbici_knightsbridge.
