“Building a business from the ground up is never easy. To see a home-grown business brand succeed year on year amidst all the turmoil and challenges of entrepreneurship including the vagaries of

peerage, especially for budding women entrepreneurs.

Mwinamo, a business strategy and entrepreneurship expert noted that a business re-branding should not only reflect the change of name or visuals but also embody the vision key factors of
success such as innovation, creativity, and trust and which form some of the key pillars of marketing and communication practice. “Reaching this kind of milestone in business, is not an end in itself but
just an indicator that you are doing something right. To stay there and even surpass this achievement, requires even more dedication and focus from the founders in developing operational
systems and sustainability plans, the lack of which has led to premature deaths of many SME dreams”, he said.
