The Founders

Meet
the
Mbewe sisters

There are different sentiments in the entrepreneurial world when it comes to Sibling partnerships.
Whiile some would say that due to the long-term relationship and bond, it’s the best and strongest partnership, others would advise to avoid it at all cost; as it is hard to separate family from business.
Whatever the case, these two sisters have taken up the challenge and are proving to be quite the dynamic duo in the Events industry.
Meet Musanjama “Sanji” Mbewe Nyalugwe and Munkokola “KoKo” Mbewe , Co-owners of Ties & Knots Events, a creative food, décor and Events planning company.
"Just the Two of us, Sister Sister things!"

Munkokola "Koko" Mbewe


KoKo on the other hand, is the youngest of the ladies and the last born child in the family. Well known by the family for her kitchen dance moves and cookouts, she describes herself as a self-driven individual who always keeps pushing even when faced with the toughest of challenges. She is bubbly and always looking to learn new things and advance her knowledge in various aspects.
“I believe you can never know too much. There is always room for something new you can learn. Being passionate about food, I find myself watching all sorts of food channels, it is kind of ridiculous I know, but it’s all a ploy to improve my cooking skills and clients experience with our food”.
Also, an Accountant by profession, she manages to juggle between her role as an accountant in the professional world and being a co- owner of the business, without having them overlap.
