  • Company Introduction

    I live in Mozambique, Africa in a rural area called Catembe.As you know Africa is seriously affected by the Aids pandemic in which we are slowly but surely losing a whole generation and more often than not you will find the head of the household being 15 years old or being in their 70's or 80's with many young to feed.I have been and now want to expand in what I am doing and that is providing work for these age groups. It needs to be work that is not too heavy.I have set-up short shifts for the elderly and for the young breadwinner to still go to school.At present I manufacture basic coffins to the lower income group, manufacture the normal basic household candle, manufacture and collect used bottles of all sorts and turn them into glasses and vases and manufacture wire coat hangers.I am now in some problems with the candles as the cost of wax has risen so much so am looking for somewhere to import it from at a cheaper price.For the smoothing of the glass rims I can no longer source this product so am looking for this as well.At this moment I am looking for machines to make the normal shirt and blouse buttons, nails, screws, bolts nuts and washers.I am also in the market for any machine that can manufacture anything that could be tackled by the young and old and will be financially viable to cover costs and income.Therefore I am open to any thoughts and suggestions.Obviously it must not be luxury items but necessities that will sell fast and inexpensively.I am an individual not a charity organisation and have this dream to help these people earn themselves an income and lead a fairly sustainable life style instead of the abject poverty that they are now facing.So consideration must be taken into account that the machines are not exorbitant prices or the raw materials.We must also bear in mind that I am dealing with uneducated people so operations must be basic and simple to train the
