Description
Summary:	The first part of this case is set in 1985, when twenty-five year old Herman Mashaba and two colleagues decided to enter the ethnic hair-care market in a politically turbulent South Africa with an evocative name for their product and a R30,000 loan. The case consists of four parts, each presenting a phase in the progression of 'Black Like Me' from a 'back-yard' operation in a black township, to an organisation ready to enter the global ethnic hair-care arena in 2002.
