Uhuru Lifestyle Emporium a potent mix of offerings

A host of business concerns located at the busy Uhuru Lifestyle Emporium hub in Polokwane each get to take their unique elements to the melting pot of offerings on the diverse menu of this destination that is fast growing in popularity.
With its name translating into the expression of freedom borrowed from the Swahili language, the emphasis is on the setting of trends, a comfortable cross-over between retail lines and trading in a safe environment.
The locale, situated on the busy intersection where Burger and Grobler streets meet, signifies a fulfilling of consumer requirements when in search of a venue with varying services under one umbrella. This is the case with an eatery conducting business adjacent to a manufacturing jeweller, a wellness centre neighbouring a homeopath and a printing business offering their services next to that of a hairstylist, with a conference facility holding the fort as anchor tenant.
Uhuru Lifestyle Emporium is home to aptly titled Uhuru Café, where the emphasis is on culinary presentation and tasty dishes in generous portions served to reclining patrons in the inside and outside rooms or a hasty take-out to go. Soon the establishment should be home to a restaurant and wine emporium that are under construction on the opposite side of an erstwhile family residence that forms the pinnacle of the cluster of buildings on the premises.
Central to the location is Uhuru Conference and Events Venue, which is not only to be seen as a conference facility but also contributor to a specific market sector stimulated by empowerment endeavours, explains owner Mmabogoshi Msiza. The venue seats 200 guests cinema style and 150 if settling for a conferencing or banqueting set-up. The modern boardroom can accommodate 20 participants.
Uhuru Conference and Events Venue caters for any celebration, from religious gatherings to anniversaries, engagements to weddings and graduations to year-end parties. With either standardised packages available or themed accessories and tailor-made menus to match an occasion, it is the obvious choice for staging a stylish affair. Find added value in the fact that the conveniently situated facility does not necessitate driving distances.
Along the deck and over a few stepping stones that lead to the most tranquil part of the premises the visitor will find Vitri’s Manufacturing Jewellers, with its alternative off-street entrance in Burger Street, for exquisite pieces either custom-made to the requirements of an esteemed clientele or from the ready-to-wear ranges imported from Italy, Spain and the Netherlands.
The other tenants include Mr Blue fashion line, Hakeem Craft hair salon, Natural Living Spa & Wellness Centre, registered homeopath Dr SA de Oliviera, Universal Service and Access Agency of South Africa and Fast Ink Printers that delivers design, printing and branding. DEL Events, a specialist in décor and events, is expected to operate from the premises from 1 April.
