The intrepid path being forged by 19 years old,
Inworikabo Sopriye Ryan, a young lad who didn’t allow the question of “when,
where and how to start” hold him back. He recently unveiled his female shoes online
retail store called SHOENIVERSE, he said that the shoe brand is his stepping
stone towards building and expanding his fashion brand. He is also using this
to penetrate the fashion market and expand his brand.
Setting out at a young age has catapulted Ryan, a
fashionista who hails from Rivers State, Nigeria, to unthinkable heights. He is
known for his tremendous fashion style. As a young man with the zeal and love for
fashion, he decided to venture into the business of making people look good. He
decided to start up gradually with female shoes with the bigger picture of
building his own clothing line. SHOENIVERSE,
his female shoe brand was a big drift from the cliché male startups.
“From a young age, my parents always encouraged me to
follow my dreams, they told me I didn’t have to wait until I was older to be my
own boss and do what I love.”
Fashioning items for friends and family in his spare
time was a kick off to achieving his dream to be a reference point in the
fashion industry.
Social
media provided a wider jolt of recognition. Ryan's Instagram page "shoeniverse''
which now counts more than 100 likes which is quite
incredible for a start-up. “Social media makes business easier” he says.
He talked about also branching out into other
businesses. For over a year, he has been managing a fish pond business. It has
been very lucrative so far and that has been his drive to be brave enough to
open more businesses.
He said “a good business man should always be ready
for the worse because business is all about risk and all we need is God to
guide our footsteps”.
He made known that the only keys to being a successful
entrepreneur is to believe and have God by your side.
