About Saniaga T-shirts

Last time when the T-shirt question was raised here by @⁨Ndanyi Madete⁩  it was responded to in ways that led to further consultation on how to have Saniaga CBO benefit from the enterprise.

At first instance the greatest function of T-shirts is to brand Saniaga as a name and identity, not to make a profit from it, not to make the producer be in business and so forth.

But that finds us with an inadequacy in running the activities of the CBO and therefore a need to see the T-shirts as a way to integrate branding (social marketing) and enterprise that is not aimed at profit making. With that there is therefore need to get a small commission that would drip down to support things as logistics and petty yet crucial doings of the organization.

Baseline, a T-shirt was agreed to be purshased @Ksh 1000/- for round necks and @Ksh 1200 for Polo necks. This is after a production price of Ksh 600 and 800 respectively is considered. And none does the production but @⁨Kibisu Joash⁩  who has been key in advising that a durable T-shirt be bought @Ksh 350 and branded @Ksh 250 fixed discount price for Saniaga to have a cheapest one go @600 total from the Producer.

That therefore dawns that for every T-shit sold, a total of 400 goes to the CBO whether round neck or polo. The money is to support the CBO in carrying out its activities as outlined above. It is payable to the Treasurer. Delivery costs are secondary and the buyer should account for that.

It goes further than just support to the initiative when somebody offers to buy. There could be willingness to offer more than standard price to further activities of the CBO. This is also in line with those who will not manage the standard price as groups and individuals who may want the T-shirts. Therefore those who order as an organized group may receive a reasonable cut similar to a reasonable explanation as to why one may not have money for standard pay.

All this is as we keep up with the spirit of working together in building and strengthening our circle to achieve what we may otherwise have not had we not been differently committed.
