Botswana: Unlocking the door to a man's world

Gaborone businesswoman Kenamile Mosiieman is a locksmith, a profession that has always been associated with men. Mosiieman has been operating her locksmith business - known as Kenny's Locksmith - since 1994. She recalled that it was very difficult when she started the business, which is situated at African Mall. "Starting the business was not easy. I used to make around P4.50 per day and rentals were high. Everything was difficult," said Mosiieman, who is the first Motswana businesswoman to operate a locksmith.
