Meet the producers: Alice Korsah, Seamstress Batiking & Sewing Center (Cape Coast): A multi-talented artisan, Alice Korsah is a seamstress and a batiker. Also an entrepreneur, Alice opened "Jehovah Jireh" in a tiny rented room while she was in her early twenties. She prides herself on reliability and nurtures strong customer relations by proving to her customers that they can depend on her for high quality work and timely completion. This philosophy has enabled Alice to gradually grow her business and bring on apprentices. Even with her solid reputation, Alice has found great challenges in growing her enterprise as the local market is saturated with seamstresses who sew custom-fit clothes. While working with Global Mamas, Alice has increased her savings with Progressive Women's Credit Union so that one day she can take on a loan to expand to a larger store. As of June 06, she has saved 4 million cedis (~US $350), and has qualified for a loan from the credit union to contribute to the cost of increasing her store merchandise. Juliana Mustafa, Batiker Batiking & Sewing Center (Cape Coast): Juliana has been with the Global Mamas batiking team since July of 2005. She is a talented artist who has established herself as one of the finest in Cape Coast. Juliana proudly calls herself a "mother first and a batiker second." Juliana is the mother of 10-year-old Aisha and 8-year-old twins Bashir and Saky, and nearly always speaks of batiking in the context of how it has helped her family.
