 I'm back again in Ghana. God bless our homeland Ghana. There's another song that you need to know. It's a patriotic song here in Ghana. I'm a proud Ghanaian. Ghanaian by blood, Ghanaian by flesh, Ghanaian by everything. Hey, I want to encourage you that it's Ghana. Can somebody open it for me? Drink Ghana and finally we're Ghana. I got super excited when I see things that are made in Ghana by Africans, by Ghanians. I mean young entrepreneurs. Oh my God. Do you know the person behind this? Where Ghana? You have no idea. Let's go inside. Go find her. How come she came about with this brand? Oh my goodness. Hello. Hello. Thank you. What's in your own brand? Thank you. I'm so happy. No, once again. Let me get it. Wow. Thanks for coming. Thanks for coming. Thank you. A lot of people are talking about you. They are telling me that what am I? You are in Ghana. If you don't meet where Ghana, don't live Ghana. Yeah, right. And I saw you and I'm so happy. Thanks for coming. How come you came about with all this? Ha. So it's a long story. Wow. Make the long story short and interesting for me. Yeah. So I'm going to try. I jumped from banking. My co-founder Angokot jumped from Telco. We came together to do where Ghana because we believe two things. One, that Africans must solve Africa's problems. Thank you. And two, that if we build lasting companies, we can solve the unemployment problem. And that takes care of poverty. So clothing is just the vehicle we are using to achieve these two things. You know what? There are a lot of young Ghanians who are telling me that there is no job in Ghana. But you created a job for yourself. You are working for someone in the bank. Who doesn't want to work in the bank? You literally started doing this by yourself with your co-partner. Yeah. We did. Which year was that? This was 15th November, 2013. So it's a day we mark. So this is just last week. Six years. Oh my God. It's just six. I should have been there. But I was somewhere else. Anyway, I'm still here. Okay. So when you were living in the bank, you had this idea already. So when we started, we knew it's fashion that we are going to be doing. Okay. But we thought we would be making customised clothes. So we did that for maybe two years. Wow. And we realised the gap in the market is for ready to wear. Because when people are looking for African themed clothing, usually they'll go to their tailor, they'll get disappointed. Either they don't get it on time, or the thing comes out differently. Also ready to wear helps us to expand and scale across not just Ghana, but across Africa. We want to clothe Africa. This is our dream. We want to clothe Africa. She want to clothe Africa. This is Africa to the world. Do you have any other brands apart from Accra? So when it comes to how we've worked, we've worked from here in Accra. And using delivery companies, we supply across. We have partnered with Allied Felling Stations. So the shops in there, the option smarts, we stock them. So they have one in Kumase. But this is something that we are trying to improve when it comes to how easy it is to find our products. In Accra, we've done a pretty good job. We are stocking Batchona Total, M-Sims, the shop Accra, the local store, the Allied Felling Stations shops, and it's still growing. And then we've just partnered with Ahum. Ahum is Nalem, you know the Nalem? So Nalem has a company that stocks other producers. And so we've partnered with Ahum. So we are in the Ahum stores as well. You make all this clothing here. From Accra. Let me go and show you. No, I need to see that. I need to see that. Wow. Wow. So yeah. Yeah, I'm a bit of a fan. I'm so happy to see this. But you, before starting this company, did you know how to sew? No. No? You don't even know how? So now? Now I can sew a little bit, but I'm no expert. That's not what I do here. So I'm doing more of marketing. Financial management. My business partner went to fashion school. So she is in charge of production. She manages the production team directly. So you employ all these people to work for you? Yes. Wow. Yes. Good afternoon, boss. Good afternoon. These are the people behind everything. I just want to know, all right? I think you have the most. Why do you play? That's about 20 of us in this company. 20? Yeah. This is a small part of the team. So there are people doing sewing, people doing quality control. And then a few people doing administrative work. How many clothes do you produce in a day? In a month? In a month we are doing about a thousand. About a thousand. But we have big dreams, Maya. We want to cloth Africa. So we have to multiply this by about a million. You know what? And it's work in progress. You said you want to cloth Africa. You really have to go to all the African countries. You have to get a partnership with different African countries. We started. We started already. We've done trips to Ivory Coast, to Zambia. We just came back from Ethiopia. We did Egypt. So it's work in progress. You should try Kenya. We are coming to Kenya next. We are coming. We are coming. We are going to Kenya and South Africa next. But people can buy this online, right? Absolutely. We partnered DHL. No matter where you are in the world, we can deliver to you. No matter where you are. Through DHL. You know DHL is a reliable delivery company. You know what? Let's make this deal. I need 100 people to order from Wegana. Perfect. 100 people. So if you are watching this video, I don't know the amount. Maybe I can buy 5 or 5 people. I can talk about our prices. Okay. How about those of course? Dollars. From about $20. What? From about $20. Let's make it 200 people. I'm going to get a link. 200 people need to order. By force. This is not like... No, I don't want to buy. Team Maya. Team Maya. Team Maya. I know them. They're going to deliver. So 200 people. If I don't get 200 people, no new video. Hey. Wow. I want you to dress Miss Trudy for me. Because I know she will love to. Because she's from Kenya. So definitely a lot of Kenyans will love to. So you want to see you in Wegana. I would love to. And then we take a video of you. Is it okay? Yeah. Thank you. Perfect. So this is the administration. Everything is done at one place. All displays are... No, it's rented. It's rented. It's rented. When you quit your job, you are not scared. But I always used to be a little scared. Little scared. I always got a lot of uncertainty. I'm moving from a situation where every month, you know that there's a salary coming to a situation where you don't know. You don't know. Are you happy where you are right now? Absolutely. Absolutely happy. Absolutely. Best decision of my life. Wegana. Wegana. I know you're young. But not as young as me. Not as young as I look. Young as I look. Young as I look. There are a lot of young Africans all over Africa. Even outside Africa. Even outside Africa. Who want to take a step just like you. If you have a message to educate people like that, what are you going to say? Just start. Just start. Don't overthink it. Planning is good. But don't let planning get in the way of you starting. Just start. And it takes time. I think that's a part of the story that we don't tell. It takes time to get anything working. So start. Get frustrated. But don't quit. Because it takes time. And keep learning. Every day, your business is like school. Learn the business. Know the business inside out. And stick with it. It will work. African needs more entrepreneurs. And so please, if you have a dream, go for it. And stick with it. It will work. If you have a dream, go for it. I'm not the one saying it. You're hearing from the mistress herself. Miss Wegana. But hey, like I said, 200 orders. 200 orders. So if you're watching this video right now, I don't know where the link is going to be, but check out the description box. You can find the link. Or that, I'm going to give the one to deliver to you. But she's saying $20, but I'll send it for you. $30. Yeah. Bye.
