Hi there i am from Tanzania, wonder if it is possible to get advise on selling my collection in Africa, where do you get buyers or retailers, how do you expose yourself so your work can be seen and you can get opportunities jobs? If you could help on these questions i will be very thankful...

loving what you are both doing....very excited about the movement with Africa
have you guys spoken to anne-liese in the group? She is working on a blog/magazine which will introduce designers like yourselves and I and explain the processes we go through to get business with Africa up and running. Her website atelier-africa is also a great site to promote your work on..message her and all the best with business :)
