Thanks to a $2,500 Northern Development Programme grant, Adi Asenaca Caginitoba of Navakasobu Village, Sasa in Macuata has been able to diversify her business.

Caginitoba says not only in tailoring and screen printing but weaving and tie-dye accessories.

The entrepreneur adds she can purchase screen printing materials, fabric paint, accessories, and a sewing machine for her handicraft business.

She says she supports her family of seven from the income generated by her life-long skills and caters to customers within her village and nearby communities, as well as customers from Viti Levu.
