MANZINI – Entrepreneur and logistics expert Melusi Mnisi will be at the centre of a Fireside Chat on Friday, 1 August 2025, hosted by Startup Grind Manzini. The event, which will take place at the American Corner in Manzini Library from 12:30 p.m. to 3:00 p.m., is open to the public with free admission—but only 30 seats are available.
Mnisi, who has spent more than a decade managing EARTHQUAKE Logistics, is also the founder of IKLERI_STORE, a growing fashion retail space supporting local Eswatini brands. The chat will explore how he has moved across industries while maintaining his entrepreneurial momentum.
He is also collaborating with Banele WJLM on a podcast project dedicated to telling African stories from an African perspective. 
The session will cover how brand storytelling can impact both logistics and retail, how to create platforms that open doors for other creatives and entrepreneurs, and how to stay relevant in industries that are constantly shifting.
