Interview with the CEO of Toks fabrics
Why did you decide to be an entrepreneur?
Because I know I can work for myself without a lot of pressure from anyone and also having to wake up early to meet up with 8-9 job (lol I said 8-9 because where I was working, I don’t get to close till that time ) it’s a lot of work on its own.
What inspired the idea of the “toks_fabrics” brand and when did you start your initiative?
I just needed an extra income because the job I was doing then could barely sustain me. I started 2017/2018 but Toks fabrics tarted it fully in 2019 when I left the job.
What motivates you and what are the principles that guide your business?
My goal to be the best in this fabric business motivates me a lot, to solve and ease people’s stress in getting a good fabric makes me happy. To sell nothing but quality fabrics to them.

What is your favorite aspect of being an entrepreneur?
The freedom that comes with entrepreneurship and meeting new people(customers) every time.
