Kato Maina Omondi

Local leatherwork and blacksmithing

  • 🇹🇿 Dar es Salaam, Dar es Salaam, Tanzania
  • Little Phoenix Shop
  • Since 2013
  • English, Swahili
My trade is leatherwork. I opened my own shop in 2013 in Dar es Salaam and I'm still there most mornings. I can still tell good work from rushed work from across the street. I'm always reading two books at once. Hearing from old faces is the best part of my week.

More about Kato

Some of my old apprentices now run their own shops. I couldn't be prouder.
