It was some months in the making, however the plans for Batsiranai Sewing groups new production facility were approved by council and the foundation of the new building has already been laid. BSG will contract local community members to construct a rectangular brick building where BSG can manufacture, teach, store and market their products. The structure will include the following: • Factory space with sewing machines, cutting tables and lecture boards for teaching • Storeroom for storage of raw materials, sewing equipment and manufactured items • Restroom facilities for employees, students and visitors • Laundry room with washing and ironing facilities • Display area for advertising and sales to allow the group to market and distribute products made at the centre to the wider region • Craft/ curio shop alongside the sewing centre where visitors can see and purchase local-made craft products, clothing and school uniforms • Kiosk and kitchen area to enable local food preparation and cold drink storage, both of which will be sold in the kiosk
Congratulations BSG!
