From cooking spicy West African (Gambian) cuisine with her Mom to creating signature scents for Hyatt Hotels, Fatoumatta "Fatima" Daffeh (Owner & Operator_Manifest by Fatima) initially emerged as a guest vendor on the cobblestone. She recalled, "I learned how to make candles for my family and friends. And there was this day I was thinking about where my life was going because it was during COVID, and I was so broke." 💸
Her natural, small-batch soy candles are more than a fragrance - they're a story weaved from memories, connections, and perseverance. "Meet The Producer" at her newly minted permanent stall in Pike Place Market’s Handmade Crafts & Farmers Market for this riveting interview! ✨
