About us

Melka Consulting supports companies in maximizing value creation and ensuring their long-term sustainability.

The creation of an independent strategy firm

Having previously been a strategy partner within major international consulting firms, Mélanie Kfoury, M.Sc., ICD.D, founded Melka Consulting in 2016 with a clear conviction: to offer executives the strategic excellence of large firms within a model that is more committed, more agile and truly independent.

Our size allows us to work directly with executives and their teams, with a level of involvement, rigor and continuity that is rarely found in very large firms.

At Melka Consulting, every mandate is led by senior advisors who work directly alongside leadership teams. And we take the time needed to deliver each project with the full attention it deserves.

10 years already!

For ten years, Melka Conseil has supported ambitious organizations in their most important strategic decisions.

Throughout our mandates, we have had the privilege of working alongside committed management teams to clarify their priorities, structure their growth, and support value creation.

This decade is above all a reflection of the trust our clients and partners place in us.

10 years of strategic advisory | one hundred organizations advised | lasting partnerships

We approach the coming years with the same conviction: to help build solid, profitable, and forward-looking organizations.
