What’s worth doing, is worth doing well 💻

Hope y’all have a balanced weekend

Big update from Tsmart Collections 🚀

I’m excited to share that I’ve successfully secured a slot and onboarded for the Abia Techrise cohort 3.0 program.

For the next 3 months, I’ll be learning full-stack development with JavaScript (web & mobile) as part of my vision to build a more tech-driven brand.

One major goal at the end of this journey is to build a website for Tsmart Collections — making it easier to order handmade fashion accessories in bulk for resale, gifts, and personal use.

Growth is happening, and we’re building for the future 💙

Many people wait until they “have everything ready” before starting a business… and sadly, many never start.

The truth? You start with what you have and figure out the rest on the way.

Now think about this…

Almost everyone you know owns Made-in-Aba footwear, especially easy-wear styles like palm slippers. People wear them casually, with native outfits, outdoors, and because of daily use, they replace them often. Sometimes owning multiple pairs at once.

What does that mean?

There’s already a profitable market you can tap into. Your job is simply to connect the product to people already looking for it. And the best part? You don’t need huge capital to start.

With just a few designs, you can begin while we provide picture samples of available styles for you to market. This means you can order based on customer demand instead of stocking blindly.

Sweet, right? 😉

That’s the business system Tsmart Collections provides.

Just like the lady in the screenshot below (and many others), you too can start your own handmade footwear business and begin earning.

We’ll guide you every step of the way.

The best time to start is now.

Are you based in Aba or Port Harcourt?

I get this question a lot about Tsmart Collections.

So here's the real story.

Before gaining admission to study Economics at Uniport in 2020, I had already learned footwear making in Aba. At some point, I was producing hundreds of male palm slippers weekly and supplying mainly wholesale buyers.

But when school started, I faced a small personal challenge. Even though I had support as a student, I didn't like being completely dependent for everything. I prefer having some control over my finances.

So during my first holiday in Year 1, I travelled back to Aba and resumed production again. When school resumed, I returned to Uniport with some of the stock.

From there, the hustle continued:
• I rented a small stand on campus
• I worked with student resellers
• I still delivered bulk orders from Aba

At some point in Year 3, I took a break to focus fully on my academics. But one thing I’m proud of is that I never completely lost track of my business.

Today, Tsmart Collections operates from both Aba and Port Harcourt.

Aba remains our production base, while we have a pickup stand at Uniport (Choba Campus) to serve our growing customers in Port Harcourt.

We currently specialize in male and female leather slippers for casual, native, outdoor, and everyday wear. And yes, we deliver nationwide for both wholesale and retail orders.

If you're thinking of starting a profitable business with small capital, stay tuned. In my next posts, I’ll share how you can start and scale a handmade slippers business too.

My footwear business took a break so I could finalize my BS.c pursuit last year

Now, I’m officially announcing our full
resumption with Tsmart Collections — a registered footwear brand focused on quality handmade footwear.

Whether you're looking for quality and affordable footwear for yourself or you want a reliable supplier you can partner with for resale, we're your most trusted plug.

Let's connect and grow together.
