Mr. Akil is the type of a person who will stay forever in our hearts. He let the employees enjoy work and carry out their duties freely. Moreover, he not only taught me how to plan work, but he also found a lot of working capability in me which i didn’t know i possessed. He would always work along with me like a coworker to ensure that the process was carried out safely and effectively. This quality isolates him from others. He was a person of innovation and he adopted so many new techniques and processes to make better products which can strive in the cosmetics industry forever.

SUPERVISOR
Mr.Akil never discriminated anyone. He was very encouraging and pushed us to be better in what we did. He always insisted me to learn from my superiors, to watch them closely and grasp knowledge whenever working with them as this added value to my work and the company. My favourite memory of him is when i got into trouble with my supervisor for coming late to work. When Mr.Akil found out the reason was due to my living conditions and difficulty in commuting to and from work, he gave me a motorbike to solve the problem. His ingenuity and vision changed the cosmetics industry in Tanzania.

Free spirited, friendly, approachable and jovial. Easy to work with, helpful and comradely. Akil improved my approach to business by showing me that all was possible if I have faith. My fondest memory of him is seeing him talking to suppliers of labels and packaging and his easy manner. I would say he believed in making Tanzania an industrialized nation, able to produce goods and export to other African countries, as he himself did.
