Vendor Biography

My name is Nelson Phiri, a Zambian entrepreneur, automotive engineer, marketing professional, and social impact advocate based in Lusaka, Zambia. I am deeply committed to sustainable community development, youth empowerment, and ending street homelessness among vulnerable children.

I hold a qualification in Automotive Engineering from Lusaka Business and Technical College (LBTC), where I served as the EIZ Chapter President and Academician. My leadership experience during this period strengthened my ability to organize, lead, and influence positive change within institutions and communities.

I am the founder of Hephzibah Consultation and Car Services, a PACRA-registered automotive company in Mtendere East, Lusaka. The business provides high-quality vehicle maintenance and repair services while simultaneously serving as a training platform for vulnerable young people. My vision is to equip disadvantaged youths with practical automotive skills and startup tools that enable them to achieve financial independence.

Currently, I serve as the Marketing Officer at Shine Zambia, where I contribute to literacy programs, mental health initiatives, fundraising strategies, stakeholder engagement, and community development projects. My role involves strategic communication, proposal development, partnership building, and promoting sustainable program growth.

I am also the founder of the Hephzibah Foundation, an initiative dedicated to addressing street homelessness by sensitizing communities on child protection and equipping vulnerable children with survival and technical skills for long-term self-sufficiency.

With strong competencies in marketing strategy, Microsoft Excel, Power BI, and Tableau, I integrate data-driven decision-making with social impact initiatives. My professional focus combines entrepreneurship, technical expertise, and humanitarian leadership to create scalable and sustainable solutions.

I believe that leadership is defined by service, innovation, and measurable impact, and I remain committed to building systems that transform lives and communities.
