Ezmarialay Stanikzai

I’m a results-driven business and investment professional with over 6 years of experience in management, international trade, finance, and private sector development. I lead sales and operations to turn market opportunities into long-term value creation.

In my role as Director of Sales & Operations at Polimax General Trading LLC, I’ve managed trading operations in polymers and plastic products with monthly turnovers up to $1000,000. I design and implement sales & marketing strategies, coordinate financial planning and cash flow management, and manage international transactions while building strong relationships with suppliers and clients across Central Asia and international markets.

I also focus on investment-led growth—supporting regional polyethylene pipe production projects in Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, and Tajikistan by securing raw materials and facilitating supply chain investments. I’m fluent in English, Persian, Pashto, and Russian, and I bring a proven ability to lead multicultural teams and foster sustainable business growth through stakeholder-focused execution.
