How to use sisal in a sentence?
During the 1960's sisal was the main thing in the Tanzanian economy, and it contributed almost 65% of the foreign exchange of the country.
It's amazing because you provide a lot of employment, I think plus or minus, our sisal farms are providing thousands of jobs, and we create housing for them, we give them health benefits, we give education support to them, so it's amazing, it's good business.
Sisal used to be the white gold of Tanzania, in the 60's and 70's our country produced over 200,000 tonnes of sisal, huge employment was provided, then of course synthetics came in, and the prices of Sisal started falling tremendously, so in the late 90's I bought a lot of farms under receivership.
