Watch out world - the women fashion entrepreneurs of Bold Kampala are coming to a city near you with their fabulous store concept!

March 5, 2015 Melanie Hawken

Our favourite fashionistas at Bold Kampala are living up to their name, as they are about to embark on their first-ever, hugely exciting world tour, taking their concept store to cities from London to Nairobi, Kigali to Luanda.

 

In line with Bold Kampala’s corporate mission to increase its uniquely African brand exposure, both on the local and international scene, the company will be taking its fabulous store concept on its very first world tour! Over the next five months, Bold Kampala will literally be ‘popping up’ in four different yet trend-setting global cities, showcasing some of its best-selling fashion items.  

First stop on the Bold Kampala tour is to one of the coolest fashion capitals on the planet, London, with show-day taking place on Saturday 14 March at the highly trendy Milk Room at the Grace Bar in Great Windmill Street, right in the heart of the City’s bustling West End. The pop-up store will be launching at 6pm and will be open until 1am the next morning, prime time for London’s renowned discerning fashion buyers and socialites.

Hot on the heels of the London pop-up store launch will be similarly exciting Bold Kampala pop-up store appearances in Kigali, Luanda and Nairobi - watch this space for more details as they unfold over the coming few weeks. These are exciting times for the women entrepreneurs behind the growing success of Bold Kampala - Ngyenzi ‘Nunu’ Mugyenyi, Janet Mugume, and Angel Kalisa.  As their corporate tagline says: “Love, like fortune, favours the bold”, and we are confident that the world is going to fall in love with the Bold brand and its team.

For more information on the Bold Tour 2015, contact the team at Bold Kampala on the following numbers: +256 312 109 699 / +256 776 311 148 / +256 775 102 364 or email contact@boldkla.com
