She said that families of women entrepreneurs were along with them to support their businesses, which had created a soft image of Pakistan. “Our organisation requires support, resources and exposure for arranging such events to serve home-based women entrepreneurs so that these women will play their progressive part in the country’s economy,” Ambreen urged.
Rumaisa, running a home-based clothing business for the past two years said, “This is my first; I have set up a stall here, and it is indeed a great experience and learning too.” She said that such events should take place on a monthly basis to benefit home-based women entrepreneurs.
Samin, a visitor, said, “I came alone to buy a surprise gift for my wife. I am amused by the talent of women who set up stalls here; all displayed items are of good quality.” He said that he bought various products for his wife.
“It’s a home-like environment here,” Samin shared.
The event brought together around 170 women entrepreneurs, artisans and change-makers from across the country.
