Encrypted Designs, founded by Brandon and Sarvani Samanathen and Yaseen Khan of Dilano Designs, recently supported two friends, Michael from Mike the Shoe Mechanic and Dawood, the Designer Dressmaker, who run a small shop on Rose Avenue in Lenasia. 

Despite starting their businesses together 25 years ago and relocating for better opportunities, the owners have faced significant challenges, especially after COVID-19, which has severely impacted their earnings. 

Yaseen, after visiting their shop to repair a shoe, learned about their struggles and was inspired by their dedication and hard work. He noted that despite their difficulties, both men maintain a strong work ethic and take pride in their honest livelihoods. 

Moved by their perseverance, Encrypted Designs decided to provide them with a new sign, aimed at increasing their visibility and attracting more customers on busy Rose Avenue. 

Michael and Dawood expressed heartfelt gratitude for the support, recognizing the potential impact this gesture could have on their struggling business. The initiative underscores the importance of community support in times of need.
