Welcome to Episode 1 of Explore with Fallon: Meet the Founders Series!

Every business has a story, and I wanted to go beyond the products to meet the people behind the brands.

To kick things off, we’re starting with @wakuda_uk themselves to find out how it all began.

Over the next few episodes, I’ll be shining a light on some incredible businesses and the founders behind them. They’ll be sharing their journeys and inspiration that brought their brands to life.

💬 Who should I interview next? Tag a business or founder you’d love to hear from in a future episode! 👇

📍 Wakuda, Lewisham

When I heard about this Black Owned Market in Lewisham, you just know I had to go check it out!!

This market is run by @wakuda_uk who originally began as an online marketplace, solely for Black Owned brands, which is still running. However, now we have the pleasure of also shopping in person. There is such a variety of things that you can buy- from bags, to skincare and cakes, they’ve got it all!

Definitely check them out in Lewisham shopping centre, I like it because they switch up the stalls so you’ll often see new businesses popping up.

Find them down here every Saturday 🖤
