A hard-working woman who lives in Gauteng and is originally from Eastern Cape is doing her best to ensure the butcher and eatery she started is a success.
Determined Philisiwe Buyaphi Sigcawu previously told Briefly News that she initially sold mogodu on the weekends when she felt her job was in jeopardy.

Philisiwe is learning about how to advertise her business effectively to ensure her target audiences are reached.
She sells African cuisine and notes that her food always makes people feel at home.
“I can do better with marketing support and targeting the right clientele.”
Businesswoman shares future plans
The 34-year-old is happy about taking the leap to start her enterprise. She opens up about her ambitions for the rest of the year:
“I would like to have baking equipment so I can offer breakfast and coffee in the morning, as the type of food I make is solid and people start buying from around 12pm, which is lunchtime.
“Additionally, another ambition is to be selected as one of the leaders in these business awards, to master my craft further, obtain funding for baking equipment, butchery equipment, to have a butchery separate from the restaurant, and a vehicle for deliveries.”
