My Business

my business deals with mpesa and popcorns which i sell outside my mpesa shop m.my main customers are the residents of ugunja who come to the market to buy goods . most of them use mpesa to transact their business . the demand for mpesa and popcorns is very high i am the only person selling popcorns most of the customers prefer me because i pack them as small as 10/= which they can afford so i sell 100 packets per day which give me 1000/= daily that gives me aprofit of 15000/= monthly the mpsa gives me 10000/= monthly avarage this gives me total income in amonth of 25000/= this money i use to pay my rent fees and domestic use my costs are paying rent for the shop county tax uploading my reloading my mpesa and buying popcorn maize . the risk i have is security of mpesa its arisky business because you handle big sums of money
