Hear from a Newcomer Who Started Their Small Business
As a newcomer in Canada, Bukola Adedeji aimed to make a positive impact in the lingerie industry. Recognizing the common struggle women face in finding bras and garments that prioritize both comfort and fit, she addressed this market gap by launching her first store, TheBraGirl, in February 2018. Her mission is to provide women with the support and confidence they need in every stage of life.
