The local company specialises in residential, hospitality, and commercial design projects. They have been shortlisted in the Lulalend Small Business Spotlight Initiative and stand the chance of winning an interest-free loan to support the business.
With a vision to create beautiful interiors through sustainable traditional techniques and materials, they are currently developing a product line with local artisans that will feature bespoke African handcrafted products.
“We believe sustainable supplier relationships are imperative to stimulate job creation and economic growth,” says Jacoline.
The pair moved from Johannesburg to Tzaneen, Tshepo’s hometown, to start their lives here and aim to grow their business in Limpopo.
“Although a lot of our clients are based in Joburg, we do believe in the potential that the region has. There is a lot of money which is circulating within Tzaneen and surrounding areas. We are excited to be doing business this side.”
