How it all began
It all started in 1922 with Jan Keune, a pharmacist from Amsterdam, and his fascination for curls. Above the drugstore he ran with his wife, he started experimenting and producing hair products. Where previously hair was curled by heating curling irons over gas burners, Jan Keune managed to develop a formula for permanent liquid. It became a resounding success that women ran away with it. The Dutch product conquered the world and Keune Haircosmetics became a fact in 1925 when Jan officially wrote the drugstore in his name.
A new era
Abbas Rehmani – a name of ‘success, consistency and hard work for Keune Pakistan. A dream that hatched from an egg and realized its potential in a blink. A boy who left his house by the countryside on his own to be someone worthy! After graduation from Punjab University, Abbas Rehmani served Siemens for 13 years, it was Siemens that nurtured him professionally and enterprisingly through rigorous trainings, international work ethics and extensive operational scopes.
It was then 1992 when he pitched Mr. George Keune for business and upon mutual interest, started to work on its feasibility. People called him a crazy lad, getting himself soaked into a business category which is a taboo in Pakistan. But he was bent to follow his heart and bring about the change in the despondent lives of beauty professionals. Keune was launched in Pakistan in year 1993 and in Dubai in 1994, since then it has been on a roller coaster ride of a consistent growth. He distanced himself from his loved ones just to holistically focus on his dream project ‘Keune’.
