Entering Into Business

Maryam noted that,  money was the motivation, saying “growing up I hated when I wanted things and my parents would say no, because they did not have or did not think I needed it. So, when my mum bought me things, I do not need, I would trade it for what I wanted or money and use the money to buy what I needed. This made me realise, people could hardly resist my offer.

“This went on until teenage hood when I schooled in Ilorin, Kwara State and most of the indigene would often ask me to shop for them. I went from personal shopping to designing clothes. I developed a flare for fashion, went to fashion school and diversified into bridal outfits until I find myself back in the lab formulated safe and healthy baby care products due to my personal experience when I had just become a mother in 2016 and six years later, I am constantly refining and redefining toward arching my business degrees and profession.”
