Let us tell you our story
Molhen Paper Solutions is a division of Molhen (PTY) Ltd., a pioneering eco-friendly packaging manufacturing company based in Maseru, Lesotho. We specialize in manufacturing sustainable paper bags and are expanding our expertise to offer a broader range of environmentally friendly packaging solutions.
Our journey began in 2022 when our founder, Makhala Henson, won a prestigious business plan competition organized by the Basotho Enterprise Development Corporation (BEDCO). This recognition provided the critical support needed to launch Molhen Paper Solutions and set the foundation for our growth.
With the mentorship provided by BEDCO, Makhala transformed her vision into reality. Their guidance, along with support from the NUL Innovation Hub, helped Molhen establish its foundation, starting with handcrafted eco-friendly paper bags.
