Adiat Disu is a young Nigerian powerhouse whose mission is to raise awareness about the value of African fashion and how it makes a positive contribution internationally.

She also shared tips for those who want to make a difference in Africa without traveling there. Disu told BlackEnterprise.com: “We’re focusing on rebranding Africa as a destination for luxury brands, and have taken exclusive brands from Africa and placed them on nationally esteemed and recognizable stages via media placements, including CNN International, the LA Times, Destiny Magazine, Elle (South Africa and Bulgaria), Black Enterprise, Washington Post, and Huffington Post.
