He was raised in Ha Ts’iu, Maseru, and growing up he was greatly impacted by his late father, an expert carpenter who owned and operated his own carpentry business.
Through observing his father's careful artwork, He not only gained craft abilities but also a deep admiration for the loveliness of finely produced wood.
His path to becoming an entrepreneur was not an easy one but he showed a natural ability for quick learning from an early age, gaining information and abilities from a variety of part-time and temporary jobs.
He was able to refine his skill thanks to these possibilities, picking up new methods and strategies from other workers and employers.
‘’Everything I know about this business is thanks to my father, He taught me a lot before He left, up until I could get hired in my early adulthood and later on starting my own thing.’’ He said.
Using only a screwdriver, he started his business by building furniture by hand. During that time, he faced lots of challenges and had to show the worth of his handcrafted goods to the public who often trusted more experience and skilled labour in this industry.
Despite these obstacles, his ability to turn ideas into stunning, long-lasting pieces won him a loyal base of clients.
Wow Furniture is now able to offer a wide range of products, such as wall wardrobes, coffee tables, desks for the backyard, handmade guitars, and much more.
Apart from furniture, He can also portray his artistic abilities with hand-drawn portraits that go well with his woodwork, giving customers the unique chance to have customized artwork next to their custom-made pieces.
He encourages people who aren't familiar with his work to come see his base at Wow Furniture, where he is sure the pieces on show will speak for themselves and in addition to his workshop, the products are also sold at MILCO.
Getting industrial machinery is one of his main goals since it will enable him to produce more and handle bigger orders, which might turn Wow Furniture into a bulk supplier.
‘’The main issue for my business is getting the licencing to apply for tenders and big projects which these big companies always get, working hard is the only way to reach that level and compete with them because I really trust the quality of my work already.’’ He said.
In addition to increasing productivity, the introduction of machines would allow him more time and freedom in his designs.
He sees himself with two or three delivery trucks in future so that he may manage distribution and logistics better when time comes.
These are the high standards he has for himself, despite acknowledging that bigger businesses dominate the marketplace, he intends to persist in his efforts for further growth.
