About PSJ Brand

PSJ is an Award winning fashion brand that focuses on tailoring bespoke suits, founded by Pedaiah Swank John, Fashion Head Designer. PSJ was officially launched on 8th May 2013 and first started reaching out to the public after releasing its very first piece named “Roi Africain”, which can be translated to mean “African King”. The piece sent a message to Africans to be proud of their heritage through its use of African fabrics and vibrant colors that reflected the continent’s culture. It went viral on the Internet in mid-April of 2014. The brand has since grown in success and earned the respect of thousands in Tanzania and abroad.
