The new brand came into business parading a collection in tandem with the objective of revitalizing Africanism. The Heritage Collection which was showcased at the 2021 Accra Fashion Week comprises great outfits. And each outfit has a black hero inspiration behind it.

The naming policy comes as of the brand’s mainstay objective: the promotion of Pan-Africanism; and is a fashion movement in this era of cultural revolution geared to getting the globe to embrace African fashion and art.
