Shamwari comes from the Shona language spoken in Zimbabwe.
In the Shona language, Shamwari means friend.
The name originated when Stephen (Nyasha’s Grandpa) affectionately referred to the young lad as “Shamwari,” Three decades later, Chiedzo (Nyasha’s mom) affectionately referred to her first granddaughter Sierrah as Shamwari yaGogo which translates to “grandma’s friend.” This led to the name “Shamwari Fruit” being chosen.
