Founder Prisca Mbiye

I began my unofficial candle making journey in 2018 as a hobby which quickly turned into a passion. This small curiosity which started in my kitchen eventually grew into something that I loved doing. I have always been a candle lover or maybe a candle hoarder, some would say. When the idea finally settled in my brain of creating my own scented candle company, it was important to me that every candle I created made someone’s space feel roomie if not roomier. Ultimately creating Roü-Mi Candle.

Why did you apply for Project Pop-Up?

I applied for Project Pop-Up because I thought it gave small businesses a great opportunity to thrive by giving them visibility in their community. As well as gain experience of owning a shop. What i hope to gain through this experience is the intricacies of owning a shop. Many times we think that it's just having a lease and decorating your store, but there is much more that goes it into every operation.
