KIDZ TUCK SHOP

Blue Ribbon launched the “Mmmm Yum Kidz Tuckshop”, an entrepreneurship programme to teach learners the practical fundamentals of business practice. For eight weeks, handpicked schools in the Western Cape became a bustling business hub, as the pupils run fully functional sandwich businesses. Pupils set up their own fully stocked pop-up tuckshop at their school. From the grassroots level of establishing business objectives, handling staff, implementing marketing strategies to calculating turnovers, the students will gain first-hand experience in the world of service trading.

Some of Cape Town’s own born, ‘bread and buttered’ personalities including Ready D, radio DJs Kyeezi, TK, Kia Johnson, dancer and entertainer Blake Williams and hip hop first lady Patty Monroe came along for the ride.
