D’IYANU: Brother and sister create bold Afrocentric colors with a purpose

In 2014, Dara Ajayi and his sister, Addie Elabor, sensed an opportunity for clothes that put a contemporary twist on Afrocentric patterns and colorful prints. In six years, D’IYANU has grown from a one-employee startup to a thriving e-commerce business with a large staff and loyal clientele.

If you want to create more time to focus on the purpose of your business, I would definitely suggest that you give ADP a try. It cuts down the time you spend on other stuff, and they have professionals with a tremendous depth of knowledge.
