[00:00.00]When Mohamed Mahamoud Sheik returnes to his hometown of Mogadishu after years of living abroad
[00:05.78]he noticed a problem.
[00:07.57]His father,his uncles,politicians,businessmen and others
[00:11.04]had to go to extreme ends to clean their suits.
[00:14.88]They had to take them abroad, to neighbouring Kenya.
[00:17.88]Mohamed,who's just 24 years old,quickly spotted an opportunity. 24
[00:21.95]He decided to open a laundry,
[00:24.67]which would not only dry-clean people's clothes,but pick them up and deliver them too.
[00:29.33]He bought the equipment from Dubai,the US and Italy,
[00:33.19]and spent time at a friend's dry cleaning business in the Gulf to pick up skills.
[00:37.80]He says it was a struggle to find premises
[00:40.81]because so many people are rushing to start up businesses in Mogadishu
[00:44.37]that there's hot competition for space.
[00:46.68]Finding staff was a challenge, but Mohamed eventually found one man who worked in a Mogadishu dry cleaners more than 20 years ago.
[00:54.92]The local authorities have provided security.
[00:57.85]The city is still affected by suicide bombs and other attacks.
[01:01.93]Mohamed is not the only Somali to come home after years as a refugee.
[01:06.83]People young and old are returning to the safer parts of the country.
[01:10.85]But much of Somalia remains dangerous.
[01:14.06]It's by no means clear that the relative peace in Mogadishu will last,
[01:18.16]but ventures like Mohamed's offer some kind of hope after years of difficulty.
