About Mini Moguls Market Day
Where young creators become confident little moguls.
Mini Moguls Market Day is a dedicated children and youth entrepreneurship showcase in Harare, Zimbabwe on Saturday, 12 December 2026 (10:00 AM – 4:00 PM). Built around three words—CREATE. SELL. LEARN.—it gives young people a real marketplace to test their ideas, present products they have made, interact with customers and learn practical money skills.
The Young Mogul Journey
