The brand Swenkasbal started in 2018 with the purpose of not
starting a brand but to start business and started selling in 2019.
The brand Swenkasbal was started by Simphiwe Ntshangase when him and his friends started going out on trips, where he made T-shirts written Swenkasbal for all his friends to be able to spot each other in big crowds so that they don’t get lost that’s how the name Swenkasabal came about.
At first It was hard for Simphiwe to continue with his brand
as it was difficult for him to get stock supply to get the brand going forward,
it was difficult to find places where he can get his supply.
The driving force behind the brand is that it was started by
local in front of everyone in the community, and the recent success is that the
brand as it continues to grow in the community it inspires many young people
around the community that is possible to start your own brand businesses if
theres someone in the community who made it possible. It possible when you
believe and put your mind to it, young people around are now inspired by not
only Simphiwe but by seeing the success of the brand Swenkasbal to start their
own business.
“ I want to open stores and collaborate with other creatives
in future that’s my dream, Its been journey for me I with this initiative I
started as I have seen many people in the community has been supporting and
still supporting so for me with the support of the community Swenkasbali would
not be here” Simphiwe said
