My Biggest Obstacles
My Biggest Obstacles
Familiarizing the Carvers with Simpsons characters and the period of product design/development was difficult and expensive. Making the carvers understand the importance of quality control and the need for benchmark standard, uniform carvings was and still is a challenge.
Obtaining an official License from 20th Century Fox was challenging and a lengthy process. Being a new start up business with 20th Cent Fox on one side and a network of rural African producer groups on the other has been an interesting situation! I am thankful to Fox for supporting this project and what we are trying to achieve.
After obtaining an official Merchandising License, the process of developing branded packaging, print wok, website etc has been extremely challenging, time consuming and costly. All packaging and Printwork has been designed and is printed in Nairobi generating additional income for the Kenyan side of the business.

Meeting the Carvers was not by definition an ‘obstacle’, but it was something of a culture shock. It was my first visit to Africa. The Carver groups made me feel very welcome, it was a great experience and I have been back to Tabaka many times.
