For entrepreneur, Masana Sangweni, founder of Maua Blossoms, a luxury floral designer and gifting service business, that meant providing clients which a solution to their shopping needs during the crisis. Her answer was to create a brand new Maua Blossoms Shopping Concierge Service for her customers.

With the current challenges facing so many customers during the Covid-19 pandemic and its resulting impacts on our everyday lives, Maua Blossoms has launched a Shopping Concierge Service in order to keep servicing its existing and potential clients, even during lockdown. Speaking about the new service, founder Masana Sangweni, says:
“As much as we are allowed to deliver flowers and gifts during lockdown, we are not making as many sales because clients are spending mostly on essentials rather than flowers and gifts. Our new Maua Blossom’s Life Savors Shopping Concierge Service provides you with the convenience of having a personal shopper taking care of your grocery shopping while keeping the personal element alive.”
Life Savors is a Shopping Concierge Service that provides a more personalized approach to the existing grocery delivery services. Shoppers get to know their clients habits and shopping trends because the client will choose the same shopper every time.
Life Savors also allows the shoppers to choose their clients and the areas they operate in, it allows for flexibility in their working hours, and can determine the number of clients they choose to service. Life Savors allows both the client and shopper to Savor Life…
“Life Savors is more than a Shopping Concierge Service, it is a platform for entrepreneurs, especially who are unable to provide their normal service offering because of Lockdown restrictions, to earn an additional income while providing an essential service. Life Savors also gives you the opportunity to wanna-be entrepreneurs to experience being an entrepreneur as you will find your own clients, build a relationship with them and determine your working hours.”
