Sisters start business building what others despise: flat-packs
Good morning neighbours,
Two local sisters are saving one marriage at a time with their business venture of constructing flat-pack furniture.
Jala Hooker, 9, and 8-year-old Aalia Hooker started Flatpack Girls about two months ago, following a homework task that involved coming up with a business idea.
