From shoemaker to maker of leather goods

Today the physically disabled man finds himself inundated with orders for shoes. His products are in such demand that he wishes he had the necessary equipment to produce more leather sandals, belts, handbags and wallets.

"A colleague of mine with selling space at the Veterinary Department in Gaborone invited me to meet experts who train people in leather tanning," recalls the 37-year-old Gabane-born Seisabogadi. He says all three trainees were from Gabane. That was in 2003.
