Karen Kruger, a former marketing manager, got tired of changing handbags only to later discover that she'd left something she needed in yesterday's handbag. She came up with a solution - the Handbag Organiser - while shopping with a friend in Manila. She came up with a design with compartments for a wallet, sunglasses, lipstick, hand lotion, notebooks, pens, and mobile phone. Karen arranged to have the organiser made in China and patented it internationally. Her sister-in-law, who lives in Canada, started a branch in Canada. The organiser has been a success in South Africa, the UK, Australia, Israel, Germany and Canada.
