Schucry Kafie

Born in Tegucigalpa, Honduras, Kafie received a Bachillerato en Ciencias y Letras from the Instituto San Francisco in 1965, and then moved to Washington, D.C., United States to attend Georgetown University. He graduated from Georgetown with a Bachelor of Business Administration in 1971. Kafie worked for his parents' business until 1974, when he established New Mark Representaciones S. R. L., which "represented domestic and international companies" conducting business in Honduras. In 1984 Kafie was named "Honorary Consul of the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan" in Honduras.

Kafie married Marlene Nasser, a sister of Fredy Nasser in 1982. They have four daughters Stephanie, Elena, Vivian, and Marianne, all four of whom work for Lacthosa. Kafie's daughter Elena is Marketing and Sales Director for Lacthosa, and daughter Marianne is also a Lacthosa executive.

In 2006, Kafie, along with his brothers Luis and Eduardo, established the Fundación Chito y Nena Kafie (Chito and Nena Kafie Foundation), a family charitable organization, named for their parents (using their familiar names). The charity has engaged in a variety of projects aimed at improving the lives of Hondurans. In June 2017, for example the Foundation entered into a collaboration with the San Felipe General Hospital called "La Cajita de Nena" to donate natal care boxes providing supplies for mothers who give birth there.
