The Story Behind SHINISA
Welcome to SHINISA – your trusted source for 100% organic, cold-pressed oils straight from the valleys of Yasin, Gilgit-Baltistan. But more than just a brand, SHINISA is a story of heritage, healing, and heart.
Founded with love, inspired by tradition, and powered by purpose — SHINISA is a family-run initiative that brings nature’s timeless remedies into the modern world.

A Brand Born from Roots & Resilience
The idea for SHINISA was first discussed on 15th August 2017, during a heartfelt family conversation in the scenic village of Barkolti, Yasin. Years later, on 1st January 2025, that seed of an idea finally took shape launching a brand deeply rooted in the rich natural heritage of Gilgit-Baltistan.
SHINISA was founded by Shamsia Baig, a Bioinformatics student at Fatima Jinnah Women University Islamabad, who grew up witnessing the healing power of apricot oil used in her hometown. She envisioned sharing this natural wellness with the rest of Pakistan and the world.
Joining her on this journey is her brother and co-founder, Sardar Ali Khamosh, a digital transformation enthusiast and social impact advocate. Together, they built SHINISA not just as a company, but as a mission-driven family business — blending ancestral knowledge with modern science and technology.
