Branding and customisation

And as we rejoice for the new day, let me say that mugorova I met Joash Kibisu @⁨Kibisu Joash⁩ in his office, Norvi Concepts at Odeon, Nairobi. He is an established saniaga in matters printing, branding, engraving and all. Nuwenyaa okore kindu chosi chosi, kuri T-shirts, caps, Car branding, charts and vindu vindi, umurore.

We said it would task us to first do T-shirts, and have it as initial way to reach out to everyone. People's preferences would be key. Then we would do customised items; charts, vitambaa, utensils etc.

There is need for a small physical location and we are all requested here to think about it. A small place, probably at Mbale. Where we could be doing our show case of items. The items will not be limited to vasaniaga alone. Vandu vosi vaguri.

We talked much more but also agreed that members needed to add up, Follow ups needed to those who haven't registered and get to meet more saniagas one on one. Which we said was possible.

Mugase sana na Nyasaye azizagil'li kukuha vuramu.

Chakava Asacha: Vucheyage. That's very progressive idea which we can all build on to indeed actualize the vision n mission of this great family. Let's support such initiatives and focus more on our future and more importantly that of our generations to come. Tukindu tukiri muruguru navuza kuduka kwingiri kukibarwa.
Honji mmbugasu vwa Yeso.

Mudengani Kisia: Karinzi nangende yo ndore ku gasi yeneyo.
