Punit Shah

Punit Shah's inaugural entrepreneurial venture is an award-winning holiday planning and tour operations venture in the UAE – City One Tourism and Travel – which has been winning hearts and awards in this sector since 2012.

A BSc degree with a major in finance may give him the commercial edge, but it is his charm and authenticity that keep his business growing.

Punit is your gateway to East Africa, where he operates a Ugandan hospitality venture with interests in hotels (K Hotels Entebbe) and restaurants (Emiboozi by K), alongside Yuti Breweries Ltd – a manufacturer of world-class spirits and beer.

His role model, his father, is the man whose vision he has been in awe of since his early days and whose ecosystem he strives to recreate wherever he goes.

As a fitness aficionado, he believes in regular workouts and healthy habits. He enjoys scuba diving, swimming, and spending time with his children, Yuti, Rudra, and his wife Maansi.
