MANTRA Tanzania has handed over a state of the art sewing machine to Utete Tailoring Mart in Songea , Ruvuma Region as part of the company’s Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) programme that seeks to support various communities where the company operates.

.

Mwaipopo said his company has already signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the Utete Tailoring Mart that will see the tailoring firm sew uniforms for Mantra Staff. “Mantra Tanzania is committed to support various development projects within Ruvuma.It is on this back ground that we are today handing over a sewing machine to Utete Tailoring Mart. We believe our donation will go a long way in changing various people’s lives,” he said.

He said funds raised from the project will be used to fund other small scale tailors through the ‘revolving fund scheme’ thus calling upon management of the tailoring mart to make good use of the machine. “Mantra Tanzania today employs about 150 people but the figure will rise to 1500 when the Mkuju River Project starts. All the staff uniforms will now be sown by Utete Tailoring Mart.

The utete Tailoring Mart Head Atnas Nyumbi during the event thanked Mantra Tanzania for the support and pledged to take good care of the sewing machine. “We are so gratefully for the support offered to us by Mantra. The sewing machine will help in perfecting our work and will make work easier for us,” he said. Mantra Tanzania has supported various development projects within Ruvuma Region that include health, education and environment.
