Local entrepreneur recognized by the PM
A local entrepreneur from the Battlefords has received some recognition from the very top.
Sweetgrass First Nation’s Kendal Netmaker who is the founder and CEO of Neechie Gear Inc. was recognized by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on social media for his work building his clothing business from the ground up as a young entrepreneur.
According to Netmaker it all began with a phone call from the Instagram head office.
“Instagram was researching some young Canadians that Prime Minister Trudeau was going to be featuring on his Instagram, and they came across my story and researched me and chose me as one of six Canadians who would be featured by Prime Minister Trudeau,” explained Netmaker.
