At Yoco, we pride ourselves in telling real stories about the ups and downs of being a business owner. The things seen and unseen. Stories that speak to the commitment, courage and sacrifice it takes to run a business in a country like ours. Conceptualised and brought to life by our talented in-house creative team, this is a campaign created for the brave ones. #BraveryHasAHome https://lnkd.in/dRfYBr7G Featuring: Wanda Lephoto, Amber Hendricks of Monarch Tattoo Co. and Mpho Phalane of Food, I love you.
