She lauded him for his generosity and commended him on achieving this milestone, never compromising on quality and attention to detail.

The event also received endorsements from two longstanding supporters of the brand: Karlene Largie, corresponding secretary of UJAA and journalist Tangerine Clarke. Largie complimented the designer on his achievements and his commitment, speaking of the partnership her organization shares as a retailer of D’Marsh candles while Clarke, who has been covering his brand for about a decade is pleased to see his growth as an independent designer and says she will continue to use her platform to share stories of his remarkable journey.
