– Vendor showcases top-quality African print fabrics during the Emancipation season
EVELYN Stewart is a vendor at Main Street, Georgetown, Emancipation Village, selling Emancipation-printed raw materials in the form of six yards at $12,000, which can be utilised to make various outfits for Emancipation and similar cultural activities.
The 79-year-old told the Pepperpot Magazine that the raw cloth is sourced from DANFOX Enterprise Inc., a global initiative and import/export merchant trader based in London, under the leadership of Chief Operating Officer Esmond R Syfox, who is based abroad.

Stewart, who hails from Sophia, Greater Georgetown, said for many years she has been a part of the annual Main Street Village for Emancipation celebrations.
This year, she had to be present too, with a booth offering raw materials—cloth made of African prints in different colours and shades.
She related that the cloth is of good quality, made from 100 percent cotton, and it can be used to make many outfits of choice as the preferred clothing for Emancipation Day on August 1.
Stewart explained that when she was at her prime, she used to enjoy visiting the National Park to participate in its activities for Emancipation.
She would vend the same kind of fabrics and fresh, homemade fruit juices, but this year, she was unsure whether she would be able to attend.
However, Stewart was present every day at Main Street, Emancipation Village, to sell her African prints, locally made fruit juices and to showcase the top-quality products as well.
