She Built a Brand, Lost It, Then Bought It Back | Unaiswi Nyikadzino | HUMHR Career Insights

Description

Unaiswi (Una) Nyikadzino made history in 2014 as the first female Executive Director at Schweppes Holdings Africa. She named and launched the FarmStyle brand in 2017. She became Commercial Director at Beit Bridge Juicing. And then she walked away from corporate to build something of her own. In this episode, Una sits down with Batje to talk about 20+ years in FMCG, what it felt like to buy back a brand she had created ("my baby"), and why Zimbabwe's food value chain is one of Africa's most exciting, untapped frontiers. She also gets candid about faith, marriage, governance, and the risk management lesson she learned from a sadza vendor. If you're building something or thinking about it this one is for you. 🎧 Subscribe | Leave a review | Share with someone who needs to hear this
