From Apprentice to Business Owner. 

Isaac is the newest tenant at our Shimwa Paul Market Hub. He sells fruits, works as an MTN agent, and handcrafts shoes. 

After graduating from our Business Leader Development Program last year, Isaac began saving and planning to start his own business. He also became an apprentice of Sylvestre, an experienced shoemaker at the hub. 

Isaac explained that he chose to operate from the Shimwa Paul Market Hub because “It’s safe, affordable, and feels like home.”  

His dream is to grow his business and create jobs to help his local community.
