    Hello Honey,

    Welcome to the Forum. Interesting to read about you and your business ambitions. How are you getting on with your final year? We've been working with Fashion Design students up at Gray's School in Aberdeen on a live project and it's been so rewarding. If you're interested in the manufacturing side of things then one of our directors David McGill, whose side projects ('Tartans for Africa' and 'International Tartans) have made him very knowledgeable about manufacturing, both in the UK and overseas. He's on the Forum (look for a tartan sheep pic) and would be happy to help.

    Best wishes with what you're doing,

    John

    hey Honey
    my trip is a little up in the air at the moment and waiting to confirm trip and visas etc etc but i should be going to Bangalore and Coimbatore/Tirupur (spelling often wrong by me !!) but i thought you were interested in Africa?? or was it always India :) either way they are both important regions to focus on. it will be my first trip there so I have alot to consider too. Re shops did you see the ad from runway showroom and also laden showroom, also beyond the valley...may be good to try

    hey girl

    im still a busy bee...focusing on studies at present - 8 more months to go. And working out plans for 2011 regarding plans with Africa...lots on towork out but all is well.

    How are you doing?

  • jacqueline

    oh  my gosh just realised you are going to india! how exciting! i wish i was there with you....keep me posted on things...very very exciting!

  • jacqueline

    it all sounds like fun but will probably be busy too. I am not sure about sending things in India....just worked with Ghana and Kenya. My India trip last year was cancelled unfortunately but maybe next year...

    have you tried any others in the forum who are good with india??

  • jacqueline

    if its your personal luggage I would take it with me. if its business stuff you wanna send just make sure its a good courier and they deliver to door. But i would get recommended one. Easiest option is to pack light and take it with you as luggage. Couriers generally unless recommended can be hit or miss.

     

    all the best though really look forward to hearijg about your travels.

  • Nidhi Singh

    Hey Honey

     

    I am not sure if I am the right person for that. But incase you are interested in buying quirky, handpainted, fair trade, organic cotton tees, and accessories- I will be happy to take you to some of the stores retailing our collections.
