A Small Soap Business Making a Huge Impact

from The Business as Mission Podcast with Mike Baer · host Mike Baer

Alex Samwell is a Tanzanian business founder with an amazing history, an amazing company, and an amazing vision. One of the things that stands out about Alex is his compassion and heart for people and the way he uses real business to accomplish great things. His soap manufacturing and sales company meets a real need for the people who live in his country. It may seem obvious but it’s not just about being clean; there are severe skin problems that many of the women and children in his area face; his product addresses those while, at the same time, creating jobs for his neighbors. Enjoy his story and learn why he named his children, Angel, Blessing, and Praise.
