Residents of the ||Kharas Region say the opening of one of the only garment factories in the region has enabled many to save money, as most had to travel to Windhoek to buy school uniforms for their children.

Parents and guardians flocked to the factory to secure school uniforms for their children. A few were lucky and managed to buy uniforms for their children, while others, like Julienie Mathys, were not as lucky as most uniforms were sold out.
