NAME
The name SVOSVA pronounced ( sh'vo - sh'va ) is shona for "try me and you will see". Shona is the native language of Zimbabwe which is where we are originally from and is where a lot of the inspiration behind the concept of the brand comes from.
Along with the name our logo is also inspired by our heritage. In our culture, each family has a totem. A totem is an animal that is believed to have spiritual significance by a society. With that in mind, we wanted our logo to represent our totem which is the Eland. Though our brand is not visibly and obviously inspired by our heritage. Our name and symbolism will always be a nod to where we came from.
