Mr T. A. Seretse founder of Jinhua Bakwa Trading Co. & Cukur Restaurant both located in Jinhua,
Zhejiang Botswana, first came to China in September 2018 to pursue a 2 year Master in Business
Administration program(international trade) at Zhejiang Normal University as part of a TouchRoad
scholarship from Botswana. During this time he was able to participate in various activities within
and outside the confines of the university which further developed his interests in the country.
These included team building activities with classmates, trade fairs organized by the university and
cultural activities arranged personally by professors. Upon completion of the program in the set
time Mr. Seretse further went on to enroll in a 2 year type B Master in Public Administration
scholarship program with Zhejiang Normal University in the year 2022. Given the global situation
at the time he resorted to put his acquired knowledge to action and registered an import export
company JINHUA BAKWA TRADING Co.,Pty. However, the current trade embargo required an
immediate pivot which then is where he developed an interest in food and beverage industry. This
led to the incorporation of Cukur Restaurant (Jinhua). Upon completion of his second masters
program in ZJNU as it is affectionately known Mr Seretse continues to run his enterprises to date.
