Negah Gandi Afghani Tailoring Center – Negah Bint Aqabacha, the founder of Negah Gandi Afghani Tailoring Center, is an experienced entrepreneur from Kapisah, with 5 years of experience in tailoring and handicrafts. After completing Grade 12, Negah started her journey in the tailoring business in 2017, driven by a passion for Afghan craftsmanship and a desire to support her family. Located in Maen Khan Khil Village, First Hissa Kohistan, Kapisah, Negah Gandi Afghani Tailoring Center has grown from a small family-run business to a thriving workshop with 7 women and 3 men on her team. The business saw significant growth after political changes, allowing Negah to offer employment opportunities for women and contribute to the local economy. The center specializes in creating Afghan-style garments, including Mora embroidery, leather dresses, hand-embroidered garments, and a wide range of handicrafts such as handmade belts, jewelry (necklaces, earrings, bracelets), and more. Each piece is made with attention to detail, blending traditional Afghan styles with modern fashion trends. Negah learned her craft from her mother, a skilled tailor, and continues to share her knowledge with others, teaching women and girls in her community. The business operates in three ways: custom orders based on client requests, direct sales through their shop, and contract tailoring for other businesses. Her vision for Negah Gandi Afghani Tailoring Center is to expand its reach, provide sustainable income for women, and grow from a local business to a national and international market. With support from Aseel, Negah’s business can now reach global customers, sharing Afghan-made garments and handicrafts with the world while empowering women in her community. Through Negah Gandi Afghani Tailoring Center, Negah Bint Aqabacha is creating not just beautiful clothes but also opportunities for women, helping to build a brighter future for her family and community.
