About the Founder, Kofi Ohene-Djan
I have worked in marketing for over 24 years in various sectors and organisations covering all aspects of marketing. I have worked for some large established organisations and young disrupter businesses. I enjoy volunteering within the arts and use my business and marketing expertise to support theatre and dance.
Being able to support Tangle and Movema has inspired me to set up a company that can bring marketing skills, experience and knowledge learned and successfully implemented at established businesses to new, start-up, SME and sole trader businesses
I have developed Osuno to deliver excellent marketing for others directly.
You are the experts in your field and passionate about your venture. Osuno provides existing and new small businesses with marketing services. Osuno can plan, organise and carry out your marketing leaving you time to focus on what you do best, running your business.

Why Osuno Marketing?
