Mampasa Soumare, whom we call MZ, is a Burkinabe, whom we met directly in the Zandu market. He is a person who exudes craftsmanship. He is passionate and dedicated to his job. Moreover, it was in search of new opportunities that he found himself in the market of Kinshasa, in Congo.
He’s been part of our journey from the start and his bracelets and necklaces are customer favourites.
Sabin is a Congolese artist, originally from Kivu, the province that is full of minerals. He chose to live from his passion in the great capital of Kinshasa.
We caught up with him while he was in action. His wooden watches and his avant-garde spirit won us over and he has been part of the TABIRI adventure ever since. In your opinion, what are the parts that are unique to it?
Mister Wax is an Ivorian brand. She was part of our adventure for a season. The handbags made by the craftsmen of this brand are magnificent and marked our entry into the world of accessories, other than handbags. He is a collaborator who is dear to us…

Here what he says:
My name is Rodricks Oidi owner of GENTI Luxury – a brand specializing in the design and manufacturing of bags and wallets.
We use skilled craftsmen to produce high-quality, affordable and functional bags with an African touch (ankara), that we export to countries like Canada, United States, United Kingdom, Uganda, Tanzania and Norway.Having a studied Computer Science, I found myself having passion in creative design as part time, I find it very exciting to express myself through african art and GENTI was a way for me to do it.
Not only does GENTI make and import bags but we are proud to be creating job opportunities to the locals. Our team of dedicated and skilled craftsmen do their best to give ultimate good products.
Personally I do the design work and marketing at GENTI Luxury, we are open to doing partnerships with more and more people to help us expand our business.
