    thanks tom for your comment why i chose to get into this business its highly profitable and mainly focuses on people on living in the middle class who can hardly afford new clothes so this gives them an opportunity to look good which contributes to their self esteem

    I consider this to be a "Green Project" because *reusing* stuff (in this case clothing) uses less energy and resources.
