Good bets but I have to admit that using the current context of the World Cup I'm a bit puzzled about how to make profits with official merch in our African markets

I hear you. But don’t forget that the diaspora is a part of this equation too.

An interesting read as usual, David. I'm looking forward to see the exponential growth that Omo Berry would have. I can feel it!

Thank you, Nancy. I can feel it too. For example, when I started working on the piece, they had about 22 million views and 60k subscribers on YouTube. Right now, they have over 39 million views and almost 100k subscribers. It's just a matter of time.
