She says that it was very challenging to start this kind of business and for the first year, she almost closed shop. “The only thing that came to my mind was the ankara business because of my experience abroad. People living in diaspora love Ankara attire because they cherish patriotism.”Makena, who studied Agroecology in the US, says she soon made customers.

Despite the hindrances, she loves her job and is hoping to expand her business in the near future.
