Inside Out Mewa: Your everyday companion in innovation
Step into the world of Inside Out Mewa, where each purchase weaves you into an extraordinary narrative. I’m Dr. Mewa Ngongang, and my journey from 2009 sparked a vision that now touches everyday lives.
Picture yourself stepping into a meeting, your laptop secure in our vibrant African-patterned protective sleeve. As you reach for a pen from your Inside Out Mewa pencil bag, you’re not just preparing to take notes, you are showcasing a piece of cultural pride.
Our story began at the Cape Peninsula University of Technology, where I balanced academic excellence with entrepreneurial spirit. Supported by academic mentors like Prof. Karabo Ntwampe and Dr. Vanessa Jackson, I transformed my passion for African fabrics into a thriving business.
Imagine exploring a new city, our adjustable sling bag comfortably across your body, holding essentials in style. Or picture a summer picnic, your drinks staying cool in our insulated multipurpose bottle carrier, a conversation starter about African ingenuity.
Each product, from our cross body bags to toiletry and makeup bags, is engineered for both functionality and cultural expression. Even our reversible hats offer two looks in one, embodying the adaptability that saw me through my Doctor of Engineering degree during the challenging Covid-19 pandemic.
By choosing Inside Out Mewa, you’re not just acquiring an accessory, you are supporting a vision of African creativity and resilience. Each item represents the fusion of tradition and innovation, a testament to the power of education and entrepreneurship. Our dedication to quality and innovation is inspired by the catalytic support of Orema Textile, led by the visionary promoters Mr. and Mrs. Noubactep, a partnership that has been crucial to our growth.
Join our journey. Let your Inside Out Mewa products be daily reminders of cultural pride and original design. Together, we’re not just making fashion statements, we are crafting a legacy of African innovation, one beautifully functional item at a time.
