Good morning, Gambia!
Meet Pa Jallow - a young entrepreneur who is making waves with his business Afrobel, a spices and seasoning repacking company.
After spending seven years in Belgium, Pa returned to his homeland with a mission to invest and create job opportunities for the youth.
His company now employs over 45 people, with Afrobel Natural Spices gaining traction both locally and internationally.
Currently exporting to Senegal and Guinea Conakry, Afrobel is on the brink of entering the market in Côte d'Ivoire. Their ambition is to become the leading manufacturer and distributor of chili powder in the sub-region.
Pa is the son of Baba Galleh Jallow, the former executive secretary of the TRRC.
