*FROM LAGOS TO ACROSS AFRICA, THE ENERGY WAS UNDENIABLE*
With over 100 participants joining both physically and virtually, this was more than an event, it was a defining moment for the Fabricare industry. What stood out most? CLARITY and CONNECTION.
For perhaps the first time at this level, we had a financing institution that didn’t just “present” to the industry, but understood it from the inside.
Juliana Adum-botchey, COO, Trade Lenda brought depth, context, and real solutions, drawn from her direct experience within the Fabricare space. That alignment made all the difference.
This wasn’t theory. This was practical. This was actionable.
From access to funding, to equipment financing, to building strategic partnerships the conversations have now shifted from POSSIBILITY to EX*****ON.
At CleanAce Foundation & Academy, we are proud to have convened this moment.
And with the strong collaboration of The Fabricare Professionals And Drycleaners Association (FPDA), we are not stopping here, this is the beginning of a more structured pathway to:
âś” Funding access
âś” Industry partnerships
âś” Scalable growth for operators across Africa
One thing is clear:
The Fabricare industry is no longer on the sidelines, we are building forward, together.
