Tourism development has become a major part of his recent work. Through Visit2Pakistan he organised four New Zealand group tours to Pakistan in one year. These trips strengthened trust, showcased Pakistan’s hospitality and culture and helped open new economic and tourism pathways between the two countries.
His community leadership spans more than two decades.

His approach has always focused on unity, responsible leadership and long term development.
Through the Pakistan New Zealand Business Council, Naveed now works to expand trade and investment opportunities. He supports entrepreneurs, small businesses and professionals by helping them understand both markets, build networks and explore new commercial partnerships.
He also leads one of the largest community projects in Auckland. Under the Al Falah Educational Trust he has completed the construction of a three million dollar masjid and community centre in Papatoetoe. The project is now moving into its final operational stage and stands as a major achievement for the community.
With experience across finance, property, tourism and community development, Naveed continues to support families, entrepreneurs and community organisations across New Zealand. His work reflects a constant commitment to building stronger relationships and helping businesses and communities grow together.
