KAMPALA – Although the annual calendar still reads November, The Makers of The Innovation Village (MoTIV) cannot wait to celebrate with you this festive season with multitudes of discounted products and a return of a physical marketplace for artisan products to kick start your shopping spirit and light-up the festival mood & tone.

The platform exists to give makers space and resources to tell their story and connect with their customers, Spencer said.

“With just one month left to the close of the year, it is time for the creatives to sell their products and light-up the jovial mood of festivity with beautifully decorated hand-made products that customers can add to their December shopping list,” he said

Spencer added: “We shall be running a Black Friday sitewide discount deals of up to 50% on our ‘Omwoleso’. Africa platform starting November 26 – 30, 2021. These offers range from accessories, art, bags, furniture, clothing, crafts, food, plants, home and living, and beauty products.”

On top of sales made, I have been able to interact and engage with a multitude of customers,” she said.

Since its inception at the beginning of 2021, ‘Omwoleso’ which is both a physical and digital platform provides opportunities for creative entrepreneurs to access the local & global market to sell their products and consumers to buy unique products, engage with and support local makers with ease.

Spencer shared that as ‘Omwoleso’ grows, MoTIV will be able to support creatives entrepreneurs have access to local and global maker contact with the markets running simultaneously in multiple cities throughout
