My main passion is sustainability. And I have made this into my business too. I am passionate about lobbying clients to switch to sustainable fabrics and reducing the workwear clothing industry’s contribution to landfill. I believe that I am leading the charge in the industry. With six years in the field, I see starting EcoGift - at the age of 50 and sustaining it - to be my most significant accomplishment. My Higher National Diploma in Accounting and Post Graduate Certificate in IT and Management has taught me to problem solve and think critically.For my clients, worker safety is paramount, and our company is renowned for creatively solving worker needs. My staff refer to me as a mentor, as I allow them to make mistakes while pushing them to be their best.My goal for EcoGift is to target oil, gas and mining companies - as the biggest contributors to pollution and users of overalls - and lobby them to switch to sustainable fabrics. EcoGift is 100% black female-owned and managed, and has received many accolades, three of which include:• Winner of the Black Umbrellas 2018 award in the category of the most jobs created;• Listed in the top 50 Black South African Entrepreneurs to Watch in Entrepreneur Magazine;• Recognition as the Most Promising Sustainable Start-up by Tropics Magazine’s Changemakers Awards 2018.If you’re in need of protective clothing, uniforms and/or corporate wear for your business, and want a sustainable and eco-friendly fabric, please do reach out for a chat.
