A TANZANIAN fashion designer and entrepreneur, Zainabu Juma, has hailed Zimbabweans for their hospitality and business cooperation.
Juma, who is exhibiting her ethnic wares (batik tie and dye) at the ongoing 7th SADC Industrialisation Week, said she was feeling at home.
“This is our first time here in Zimbabwe and the welcome was overwhelming; it was as if they knew us before,” she said.
“I hope to come again after this event to do business and exchange ideas with local entrepreneurs. We also want to establish some connections with the people of Zimbabwe.”
Juma said their garments were authentic and stylish.
“You can only get this in Tanzania and we also want them to be available here,” she said.
“Our products, especially batik tie and dye will never fade, it is original and authentic.”
The Industrialisation Week, which opened on Sunday, ends tomorrow.
Running under the theme “Promoting Innovation to Unlock Opportunities for Sustainable Economic Growth and Development Towards an Industrialised SADC”, the event is a precursor to the SADC Heads of State and Government Summit.
