Finance ready plan: Expand production of quality uniforms across Africa through franchise outlets

Mang Wear, Kenya

Every week, BiD Network highlights three finance ready plans. These top businesses have been subjected to the rigorous selection, coaching and matchmaking processes of BiD Network.

Mang Wear is the textbook example of a small business with the ambition to double in size in three years. Established by Mary Njuguna, a housewife with only one sewing machine and the dream of opening a clothing store, Mang Wear currently specialises in school uniforms and sells over 100,000 pieces per year.

Given its excellent reputation, Mang Wear has been approached by several companies to expand its production line to professional uniforms.
