At 14, she had cut her entrepreneurial teeth. At that tender age, Oluwatoyin Bakare (Mrs.), an entrepreneur, accountant and chief operating..

was founded as Sola Adedeji Stores, a family business by the late Mrs. Sola Adedeji, in 1978 and incorporated as a limited liability in 1995. More than four decades after, SAS Textiles Ltd., a one-stop shop for quality fabrics, has evolved from one-room to a chain of five stores across Lagos with a staff strength of over 30. Its Chief Operating Officer , Mrs. Oluwatoyin Bakare, is building upon her late mother’s legacy and values of hard work, integrity and excellent customer service.

Indeed, under Bakare’s charge, SAS Textiles has been growing in leaps and bounds in the past 43 years. For instance, it has become a one-stop for various fabrics, including Swiss Voiles, Organzas, Polished Cottons, Guinea Brocade, Tafettas, Guipiures, Damasks, Headties etc. Bakare has also helped steer SAS Textiles from a one-room store to a chain of five stores spread across Lagos, with a staff strength of over 30.

“A lot of our customers still tell us that they still hold onto the fabrics my mother sold to them because those fabrics have stood the test of time. The quality of our fabrics is very important to us and we take it through an internal process of quality control. We have also learnt to meet our customers’ needs and our prices cut across all our stores. We are able to meet the needs of everyone and we work according to your budget.

However, in propelling SAS Textiles to its present vantage position in the competitive industry, Bakare relied so much in personal development.
