> Who exactly is behind Africanlacenet ?
Hi, I 'm Pierre and I worked in the embroidery business for more than 10 years doing sales and design. All projects I 'm working on start with an ethical background, or are aiming to promote something "right". For africanlacenet, the right cause to defend is the under representation of Africa on the web. The second part is to develop a tool for the industry that make business happening.
We look forward to hear from you.
