PROVIDING local entrepreneurs an avenue to showcase their exquisite products, SH-Himco launched a three-day event dubbed Souq Al-Ramadhan 2017 at the Royal Berkshire Hall of the Royal Brunei Polo and Riding Club yesterday.
In a speech, Shanti S Samtani, Manager of SH-Himco, said the event aims to gather local entrepreneurs selling a variety of designer products, organic beauty products, perfumes and jewellery.
At the same time, the Souq Al- Ramadhan also showcases SH-Himco’s gorgeous fabrics.
“Having 18 years of textile experience, I am able to foresee the trends and upcoming requirements that not only suit the local market but also internationally.
“I have seen that our local entrepreneurs have unique expertise but limited support. We are more than willing to help anyone out there wishing to expand their business in the fashion industry,” Shanti S Samtani said.
During the Souq Al-Ramadhan 2017 which will be carried out until June 4, 1,001 goodie bags will be given.
