Meet Olufemi Hamed | A serial entrepreneur & Christian minister

We had the good fortune of connecting with Olufemi Hamed and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Olufemi, is your business focused on helping the community? If so, how?
My business is multifaceted, and every single facet provides a particular service to the community. At Icone, and all the other businesses including Jerimoyamah concert usa, make the other person our focus, we are client/customer-centric, which leads us to understand the needs of others, and consequently a clear-eyed vision of our to help the community and the world

Alright, so for those in our community who might not be familiar with your business, can you tell us more?
My business name is Icone llc. This is a service provider in several industries which aims to impact lives positively one at a time. Icone llc provides the following services 1. Private Security services through 2 subsidiaries that provide security services to the Dallas and Hohston communities respectively. We hope to extend this to other major cities in Texas in the future
2. Locksmith services to the DFW community
3. home health services
4. Music/Video studio for entertainment
5. Logistics as a uhaul subdealer
6. Homeless shelter
7. Christian ministry

What sets us apart is the fact that we are able to focus on our clients individually by understanding their needs, and attempting to fulfil those needs.
I am mostly proud of where we are now since 2018 and how confident we are in taking these to next to thelevel in order to reach more people.
I would attribute getting to where Iam today to my deep faith in God’s grace, an inquisitive mind, and to an unwavering dedication to my goals despite whatever situation were in front of me.
This has never been easy, as it took a lot to navigate every situation to success. I was able to overcome by asking the right questions and treating each obstacle as the next challenge. You will notice even in this conversation, I find it hard to use the words problem, issue or obstacle, and would rather use the words challenge, situation or even opportunity. I believe this is the first step I took to overcoming the challenges.
I learnt several lessons along the way, which include the following: You need knowledge on every challenging circumstance in your life before you are able to solve it, help will not come until you help yourself, nothing will be handed down to you unless you create the environment,You will never achieve anything by complaining, and nothing will move unless you move first.

My brand combines business and ministry. The business part is more generic, and focuses on providing specific services in the private security, locksmith, home health, logistics, entertainment, and homeless shelter industries to individuals and organizations alike. The ministry part is more direct and focuses on the individual one at a time. We will continue to do this as we seek the opportunity to do it on a global scale.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
I am not much of a social, party animal, so I would just take them out to tourist areas in Dallas, such as the Aquarium and the zoo. I do love traveling and spending time in hotels and resorts, and would invite them to some of the best hotels such as the omni hotel, the Sheraton and Hilton resorts.

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
Family. This includes the people who have surrounded me from my early childhood who never stopped being proud of me. They made sure to infuse me with the mentality that I had purpose from the beginning and was very unuque. As an African-born individual, we believe in culture and reading meaning to everything from the date you were born, to the name you were given. I was born on a date Ngeria celebrated her independence, and named as someone loved by God. Growing up with mindset formed a solid foundation upon which I built everything. Even when I arrived the in the United States, it was with purpose, and another kind of family, the church was there for me. These individuals form part of my family and they all deserve credit and recognition in my story.
