At XCAPE by Edith Delight, we believe that building a successful brand is about more than creating great products.
It is also about creating opportunities, supporting people with ideas, and contributing to the communities we come from.
That is why we were proud to support For Us By Us (FUSBUS), a major entrepreneurship initiative created to shine a light on Cameroonian businesses, products, creators, and innovators.
FUSBUS: Creating More Opportunities for Cameroonian Entrepreneurs
Held at Krystal Palace in Douala on October 2–3, 2026, FUSBUS brought together entrepreneurs and creators from different sectors to showcase what they are building and connect with potential customers, investors, sponsors, partners, and members of the Cameroonian diaspora.
The vision behind FUSBUS goes beyond a traditional business exhibition.
It is about asking a bigger question:
What happens when we create more opportunities for Cameroonian businesses to be seen, supported, connected, and taken to larger markets?
That is the conversation FUSBUS is helping to start.
The platform is built around the idea of opening Cameroon’s entrepreneurs to the world by helping credible businesses gain visibility and connect with international investors, buyers, sponsors, and partners.
Dr. Edith F. Gibson: From Building XCAPE to Building Opportunities
FUSBUS was spearheaded by Dr. Edith F. Gibson, Founder of XCAPE by Edith Delight.
Her work through XCAPE has always gone beyond skincare.
XCAPE itself was created with a focus on solving real skincare needs, particularly those affecting tropical and African skin. But the bigger vision has always included creating opportunities and contributing to the growth of the communities we serve.
That same vision is reflected in FUSBUS.
Dr. Edith believes that Cameroon has entrepreneurs with incredible ideas, products, skills, and potential. What many businesses need is not simply another place to sell their products, but greater access to visibility, connections, resources, partnerships, and markets.
FUSBUS was created with that in mind.
Supporting Made-in-Cameroon Businesses
One of the most exciting parts of FUSBUS was seeing the variety of businesses and products represented.
From beauty and fashion to food processing, manufacturing, agriculture, professional services, and creative businesses, the exhibition demonstrated just how much entrepreneurial talent exists across Cameroon.
More than 60 exhibitors participated in the exhibition, giving visitors the opportunity to discover locally created products and connect directly with the people behind the businesses.
For XCAPE, this is important.
We know what it takes to build something from an idea into a real brand.
We know the challenges that come with developing products, finding customers, building trust, creating visibility, and trying to take a business beyond its immediate market.
That is why supporting entrepreneurs is something we take seriously.
Our Commitment Goes Beyond Skincare
XCAPE by Edith Delight is a skincare brand, but our impact does not have to stop at skincare.
We want to be part of a community where businesses support one another, where entrepreneurs can access better opportunities, and where African brands are given the chance to compete beyond their local markets.
Our support for FUSBUS is one example of that commitment.
By investing in initiatives that create visibility and connections for entrepreneurs, we are contributing to an ecosystem where more Cameroonian businesses can grow.
The long-term FUSBUS vision also includes connecting selected Cameroonian products to international markets and creating pathways for entrepreneurs to reach customers in the diaspora and beyond.
Why This Matters to XCAPE
Our own journey has taught us an important lesson:
You cannot build something meaningful alone.
Brands grow because people believe in them. Communities grow because people invest in one another. And businesses grow when the right opportunities and connections are available.
That is the kind of environment we want to help create.
Whether it is through skincare education, professional opportunities, entrepreneurship, partnerships, or initiatives like FUSBUS, XCAPE remains committed to contributing to something bigger than the products we sell.
A Celebration of What We Can Build Together
FUSBUS was more than an exhibition.
It was an opportunity to celebrate what Cameroonians are already building while creating conversations about what is possible next.
For us at XCAPE, it was also a reminder of why community matters.
We are proud to support entrepreneurs who are creating, innovating, employing, transforming, and building businesses from Cameroon.
And we are excited about what happens when those businesses are given the opportunity to be seen by a much bigger world.
This is bigger than skincare.
This is about building opportunities, supporting entrepreneurs, and helping move Cameroon forward together.
