Makwakwa Curios processes
exotic hand-crafted décor products out of a processing
factory near Hoedspruit in Maruleng. Ninety percent of their
hand-made work is made from indigenous monkeyballs, a round
shaped indigenous fruit which is superbly processed into
various fashionable shapes, sizes and colours. Wonderful
creativity and innovative design is seen in their range of
15 different products. TechnoServe believe that, with
assistance, Makwakwa Curios can reestablish its previous
significant footprint in the local hand craft market, and
possibly even develop sustainable export linkages.
