vintage shirt from ice Prince Fashion Workshop
This place is very close to us , my husband is a lover of good clothes so we patronize this place often. The vintage shirt you are seen is one of the ready to wear clothing from ice Prince Fashion Workshop . It sold at 70 Steem approximately.
Why are workers or normal people more attracted to these stalls?
In the shop
Successful business that attracts people is one that gives a satisfactory service to the customers. Since the inception of this place I have not heard any dispute between customers and the owner of the shop. He always delivers his work at when due . And gives a perfect work that is recommendable.
He is located at a good place, when there's no electricity in the street he powers his machines with generator.
Are these businesses creating income opportunities for people around the factories?
Yes this business is creating income to people around , some boutique owner comes around to buy ready to wear and resell. While some people come to pick waste materials to reuse.
It has been a blessing to us around the neighborhood because it becoming a land mark.
People who sells tailoring materials in my neighborhood earn from this fashion store .
They also employ young boys and girls for some minor things like ironing and packaging of clothes.
It Was an interesting outing as a journalist in my street, I enjoyed the review and feedback, until next week I remain your journalist okere-blessing.
