dc.description.abstractThis study investigated the acceptability of African print kitchen furnishings among female junior staff at the University of Ilorin and assesses their potential for wealth creation. The study posed five questions and formulated one hypothesis tested at a 0.05 significance level. A descriptive research design was employed, with a sample of seventy-one (71) female junior staff randomly selected from a population of 245. Data were collected using a well-structured questionnaire, then analyzed through descriptive statistics (percentage, mean, and standard deviation) and inferential statistics including Pearson Product Moment Correlation (PPMC). The findings revealed that awareness of African print kitchen furnishings among the respondents was generally low. However, there was a significant positive relationship between consumer awareness and the acceptability of these furnishings. Despite the potential for wealth creation, sourcing quality fabrics and lack of expertise posed significant challenges to the adoption and promotion of these products. The study found no significant relationship between perceived economic benefits and the acceptability of African print kitchen furnishings. Based on these findings, it was recommended that efforts should be made to increase awareness and improve the skillset of those involved in producing African print kitchen furnishings, thereby enhancing their potential for wealth creation.
