| Video Discription | Welcome to the next video of our coverage from the 2022 Philly Bike Expo! Read more about the expo here - https://phillybikeexpo.com Booomers / Pampro Bikes: "When Kwabena Danso left his rural hometown for the bright lights of Accra, Ghana鈥檚 capital city, he was excited by the opportunities ahead of him. After completing his degree however he realised that these opportunities seemed to exist in the city but not where his family lived, in the lush green countryside outside. If the opportunities where he grew up weren鈥檛 there for a graduate, what chances did those with little education have? " - https://booomers.com "He teamed up with some fellow students and set up the Yonso Foundation to support education projects for children, especially girls. He met many interesting people who were also trying to open up opportunities for rural communities - one of whom was Craig Calfee, a bike frame-building pioneer over from the US. In 2009 Craig introduced Kwabena to the special properties of bamboo for bicycle frames. Kwabena saw an opportunity to help young people in his home town develop new skills by crafting a high performance handmade product using local sustainable materials." In this video, JOM Of the Gravel Cyclist is joined by Kwabena Danso, Founder of Booomer Bikes, to learn about the brand, and a little about the company's gravel bike, the Agona. Continued from Above: "He went home to build a factory and after receiving international quality certifications, Booomers started exporting beautiful frames around the world. Our largest partner, MyBoo, sell their bikes throughout Europe. We have since produced over 3,000 frames and employ over 50 young people aged between 18 and 29. We also provide an income to 20 young people who harvest and 200 farmers who cultivate bamboo."
