Ms.Elorm Flolu, the face behind Emeralds Clothing
Emeralds Clothing, an authentic Ghanaian fabric line, last week opened its fourth boutique at Giffard Road at Cantonments in Accra.
Lovers of African Wear were no doubt, present in their numbers to purchase and see for themselves new African and Ghanaian designs in vogue.
Ms Elorm Pearl Flolu, the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Emerald Clothing, earlier in her address, said the Cantonments branch was the fourth to be opened after two of such had been opened at Ho in the Volta Region and another at Kasoa in the Central Region.
She said that within the past five years Emeralds clothing had provided jobs for young tailors, stylists and models.
Mr Senyo Hosi, the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Ghana Chamber of Bulk Oil Distributors and Executive Chairman of Cleave and Tours, opened the facility.
He commended Ms Pearl Flolu for a good job done.
“This could be a game changer as it promotes our culture, creates jobs and takes Ghanaian clothing line to the whole world,” Mr Hosi emphasised.
He said Ghana could only optimise the potentials of people like Ms Pearl Flolu for the benefit of all, especially those who desired to learn a trade for self sustainance.
The launch was graced by dignitaries from different fields; Sarafina Tetefio, CEO of Lotus Mart, Patrick Donkor, CEO of kekle Securities and Dela Zuttah, CEO of Stockit, and James Etornam Flolu, DCE of Afadjato South.

Von Sinu releases debut single ‘Thank You’
Von Sinu, an upcoming gospel musician, has released her debut single titled ‘Thank You’ which is gaining popularity on the airwaves and streaming platforms.
‘Thank you’ seeks to appreciate God for his goodness and faithfulness in her life.
In an interview with The Spectator in Accra, Von, who is also a fashion designer said “looking back at my life and what God has told me about myself, I was grateful.
She said she had to record it and later sent it to a friend who has been very instrumental in her being a gospel singer.
She said though there were other songs written and recorded, she thought it was prudent to release ‘Thank you’ as the Bible urges believers to give thanks in Psalm 92:1-2: “It is good to give thanks to the Lord, and to sing praises to Your name”
The song is available on all digital platforms including Youtube, Spotify, Apple music Deezer and Tidal.
