Soulmate Industries is one of the lending cosmetics firms in Africa

On their website, there are faces of pretty and happy women – all African queens. One thing is common among them. They love their hairs. They truly do. And one company is making sure it stays that way.  Soulmate Industries Ltd is the iconic Lagos company that has brought many women to appreciate the joy and the glory God has given them. And they are making them take the hairs as their soulmates.

The company has a very simply mission as stated on their site:

Our vision is to be dedicated to researching and developing high quality and effective products that contribute to restoring and maintaining the hair’s health and beauty. With much understanding of the importance of healthy hair, Soulmate range of hair products are uniquely formulated to promote, restore and maintain your hair for a more beautiful you.

 

The Founder of this company is Ndukwe Osogho-Ajala with mantra that “there is no limit to enhancing quality, skill and packaging”. This belief, which is practiced through a continuous research as the basis for insured standard, has emerged as the culture of Soulmate Industries Ltd.  Very interesting – practicing Japanese Kaizen live in Lagos.

Innovation lives in Soulmate and that is demonstrated in the products which are winning new women over. They continue to innovate by bringing researchers and professionals as they push to give women a hair experience with the touch of Africa. This is certainly what Africa needs as we push to move from Africa 1.0 to Africa 2.0 where innovation will be our only strategy. By focusing on quality, Soulmate sees that it meets present needs, expectations and works in the domain of meeting those women’s perceptions by creating great products.

The company at present operates six main product lines – Hair Conditioner Plus®, Herbal Hair Grow®, Hair Grow Bergamot®, Sulfur Anti dandruff®, Soulmate Relaxer® and Endys Family Hair Cream®. The Hair Conditioner comes in ten sizes; the Herbal in seven sizes, Bergamot in seven sizes, Sulfur Anti dandruff in 5 sizes and Endys Family Hair Cream in 4 sizes.

And the entire Soulmate range of Haircare products is fully approved by National Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC), the Federal Government’s agency responsible for food and drugs administration and control in Nigeria and Standard Organization of Nigeria (SON). The product’s trade mark is equally registered.  The company is also a full member of the Manufacturers Association of Nigeria (MAN) as well as Cosmetics Manufacture and Ethics Association of Nigeria (COSMEAN)

Soulmate Industries Ltd has also signed the vibrant, talented artist, Mo’Cheddah as their Brand Ambassador. Awesome!

Flock Browser Goes from .com to .gone – When Google Is on Pulpit, All Bows

By
Tekedia Editors

Today, Flock Browser went .gone. This was one of those dreamers that wanted to challenge Google or perhaps Microsoft on browser. Unfortunately, they crashed.  Now, they are recommending Google Chrome and Firefox. I think Chrome capability will make them to not become a viable alternative in the industry. They made the right decision and left.

This is from Wikipedia :

Flock was a web browser that specialized in providing social networking and Web 2.0 facilities built into its user interface. Earlier versions of Flock used the Gecko HTML rendering engine by Mozilla. Version 2.6.2, released in July 2010, was the last version based on Mozilla Starting with version 3, Flock is based on Chromium and so uses the WebKit rendering engine. Flock is available as a free download, and supports Microsoft Windows and Mac OS X platforms (previously also Linux).

Support for Flock was discontinued in April 2011.“Official End of Support Notice”.

 

Their final words….

 

Support for Flock browsers will be discontinued as of April 26th, 2011. We would like to thank our loyal users around the world for their support, and we encourage the Flock community to migrate in the coming weeks to one of the recommended web browsers listed below.

 

Our Recommendations

Since no further security updates will be provided to keep you safe on the web, we encourage all Flock users to upgrade to one of the two browsers listed below. Both are based on the same reliable technologies as Flock, and both are being actively maintained and improved. Also, each of the following browsers has a broad selection of add-ons and extensions to customize and extend their capabilities.

 

Do Not Be Deceived, The Best Startup Success Is Completing Your College

By
Tekedia Editors

Two points:

PayPal founder (and billionaire) Peter Thiel is offering grants to 20 students under the age of 20, luring them to leave school and become entrepreneurs. He thinks that getting teenagers to start thinking big early will help them become innovators. Rather than take on education debt, Thiel wants these kids to get $100,000 from a mogul and start a business.

In a Bloomberg Businessweek ranking of CEOs of S&P 500 companies, those without college degrees tied with University of California system graduates as running the most businesses. Last month, Stephen Greer asked Does an Entrepreneur Need an MBA? He showed that while an MBA may not provide all the ingredients to become a successful entrepreneur, it does equip entrepreneurs with the skills that can make them more effective. Yet, Mr. Greer was discussing those who have obtained, at least, undergraduate degrees since such are usually required for admissions into most MBA programs.

But what if the entrepreneurs are not even college graduates? What is the chance that a kid that leaves school because of $100,000 will succeed as an entrepreneur? And if he fails, what will Mr. Thiel do for him? For every Mark Zuckerberg, there are countless dropouts who have failed.

Some dropouts become legends and create industries. Is the current model of education relevant to these entrepreneurs? Our doctors and lawyers cannot afford to be dropouts, but many entrepreneurs have excelled by doing just that. If some dropouts excelled without college degrees, why must a kid entrepreneur pass through college and get rewarded with an average debt of $250,000?

Mr. Greer says you can’t “teach someone to really enjoy taking risks.” That does not mean entrepreneurs do not need education; under most circumstances, lack of education hurts. Of college dropouts who become successful at a young age, many do so in technology, an area that rewards such entrepreneurs. Entrepreneurial opportunities in finance, medicine, banking, law and most others areas have structures that allow for much less risks. For budding entrepreneurs who want to work in those areas, staying in school opens more opportunities.

As a college student in Nigeria, many of my classmates left school to start businesses thinking they would become moguls before the rest of us completed college. None succeeded. The ones who completed college and got into entrepreneurship are doing much better. They are the ones whose companies are now entering into joint partnerships with multinational companies. Their confidence and better vision in the market helps them scale and pick opportunities. Those without education cannot play in that level. The educated ones can get travel documents to most Western nations; these governments discriminate on educational status when approving visas. There seems to be no single reason where dropping out of school has helped. Yes, I know, you may not expect future Microsofts and Facebooks from Nigeria, but even in the U.S., I know for sure: thousands of kids have been destroyed by the illusion that leaving school is a recipe for successful entrepreneurism. They have failed to see school as a risk worth taking. Their degree should be their first product, on which they can build many more.
