Daniel Skaftouros (the Skaf man from Down Under) owns Weaverbird Design & Marketing agency, the agency that cares about people and brands.
Ashlé (the Skaf woman from ZA) is the birth mother of Kangamama - African centered products. From organic skincare to natural fibre knitwear, crafted by the hands of African women, this is the heartbeat of this corner.
