Tell us about your fabric
business, for how long have you been in
it and what actually motivated you into it?
I started
selling fabrics since I was in the university. I started with Guinea and Attiku fabrics that was like eight years
ago. After my youth service I sold some Saree before I got a job with bank. And
even while working in the bank, I still sold some Guinea fabrics on the side
with silk fabrics . I stopped working in the bank after two years and started
selling all fabrics which include lace and Aso-Ebi
for occasions.
