@tmsruge - Need solns that work best for users (they choose). Both Afripads & Makapads seem to be selling to UNHCR etc.. Not consumer mkts?

@MForstater UNHCR as distributor. Both available on market, so r other global feline brands. Choice is only an option for those w means

@tmsruge - I wonder what barrier is to the sewing pattern being copied by local tailors, it can't be capital or IP....why the need for BOGO?

@MForstater We are merely recipients. In the previous case, it is the only BOGO model that does it right. Instead of product, it invests

@tmsruge - Investmnt good but does product meet needs e.g. this study - girls choose disposable over free cloth pads http://www.doublexeconomy.com/publications-projects-2/sanitary-care-and-girls-education/ …

@MForstater that just tells me girls are same all over world. Some will prefer cloth, others disposable. 1 solution isn’t going to fit all

@tmsruge - almost no one prefers cloth. Particularly if they don't have privacy to scrub and dry them.

@MForstater The luxury of choice is afforded to those in developed communities.
