Before he founded Patricia, CEO Hanu Fejiro Agbodje says he tried and failed at 13 businesses, all of which, in his words, “ended in tears”.

“My failed businesses gave me so much first-hand experience that in the first two years of running Patricia, there was barely any challenge that was new to me,” he said during a recent chat at the Patricia Universe office in Lekki, Lagos, Nigeria.
