How???
Good question! Let me take you through memory lane.
THE OBJECTIVE
Sometime in late October 2013, TwizzleFrisky Apparel, a start-up clothing company currently based in Nigeria formed a partnership with Barlow Designs, also a start-up printing company. Their sole aim was to form a formidable alliance to take the custom apparel & printing industry to the next level in Africa.
COMPANY PROFILE
TwizzleFrisky Apparel
This company is nowhere a new comer to the custom apparel business. Based in the heart of Lagos Nigeria, this start-up launched their operations officially on the 25th of September 2011 with a launch party in Ember Creek, a popular club in Ikoyi Victoria Island, Lagos. The gig was tagged ‘the frisky party’ which had over 90 gorgeous youths in attendance including celebrity soul singer, @RexxUberfresh
A week after that, precisely on the 30th of September they were also part of ‘The Annual Green White Green Models Nite 2011 & Nigerian Models Achiever’s Award Nominees Party. The party was a night of music and runway coupled with a bit of comedy.
In November 2012, the company announced its new line of apparel dubbed, ‘anakara teez’. The campaign was a successful one with traditional Ankara fabric blending smartly with cotton, velvet & other t – shirt fabric.
