My name is Tatu and I live in an area called Bamburi on the outskirts of Mombasa city. I was born not far from Mombasa in a place called Kilifi. My father was polygamous and I was born in large family of 14.
I grew up in rural Kilifi and this defined the person I am today. I received modest education and then moved to the city of Mombasa on becoming an adult. I did a short course on beauty therapy and this is my career to date.
I am married with 2 kids and they are yet to figure out what they want to be when they grow up.
My business entails selling of beauty products as well as making soaps and detergents. I sell lotions, creams and hair products from my store. I also attended a short course in making soap and detergents and I have added this to my beauty business.
I hope the two departments will keep growing and give me the much needed financial freedom.
I will buy raw materials like acid and glycerine which are the raw materials used in making of soap. This money is enough to buy me stock that will last me for two weeks.
The end product will double my profit. I therefore expect to make a profit of about $18 from this venture.
