  1. Good luck. When I was last in Lilongwe I sought after any local soccer shirt I could find as a souvenir. Nothing, absolutely nothing besides a china Malawi shirt for 2x the price. Even at the airport they only had XL which was more like S. Nothing even at the Gateway Mall. So much for commercial growth…
