Karina is Zimbabwe's sole
manufacturer of knitting yarn and is Southern Africa's
largest manufacturer of carpets north of the Limpopo.
It was established
in 1959 under the name of Ferguson Shiers manufacturing
carpeting in a factory set at the foothills of Nyakamete
Mountains in Mutare, 270kms east of the capital Harare.
In 1969 it
expanded into knitting yarn manufacture; a market which
has grown into a developing home industry.
