Despite economic challenges, Denise proudly stated that Forever Sole Mates has achieved robust sales growth within the span of nearly a year, all while maintaining stable product prices. This impressive accomplishment reflects her entrepreneurial acumen and dedication to providing quality products to her customers.

In the picturesque town of Agortime-Kpetoe in Ghana’s Volta Region, a young entrepreneur named Matti has defied age and adversities to carve an inspiring path in the business world. From his humble beginnings, Matti’s tenacity and passion for entrepreneurship have driven him to create waves of success.

Matti’s journey commenced with his grandmother and visually-impaired grandfather, who nurtured his dreams and instilled in him the belief that everything is achievable. He attended the EP Basic School, where his grandfather taught him how to write his name, leaving an indelible mark on his young mind.

Later, Matti moved to the bustling Greater Accra Region, where he joined IBM Primary School in Madina. However, a discouraging incident in class two forced him to leave, but he did not lose hope. Undeterred, he continued his studies at Baba Yara M/A 1 & 2 Junior High School, though irregular attendance led him to repeat class five. Despite this setback, Matti discovered his entrepreneurial spirit early on. Fueled by a desire to make money, he balanced his education with endeavors such as working on his father’s farm, cultivating crops, and tending to goats.

As he navigated his academic journey, Matti faced financial challenges when his father couldn’t afford to pay for his university studies. Nevertheless, his determination led him to find a way. Using savings from a laundry job and support from his siblings, he managed to pay his initial university fees. Eventually, his father stepped in to assist him in continuing his education.
