I was born in 1979. After graduating from high school in 1998, I pursued a mechanic and driving course which i completed successfully.I then got employed by a car dealer in Nairobi to do panel beating ,welding ect where worked for around 3 years.In 2006 i said no to employment and started a retail shop .Since then i have been operating this business to feed my family and educate my son.
I have started my retail shop over 6 .I am a trained mechanic however i settled on my own business since i was not able to secure a stable job.I sell cakes ,bread ,sugar,tea leaves,flour etc to my neighbours and people of kariobangi at large.I want to grow this business and include MPESA agent with the help i get from Zidisha.Cutomers need this service when they purchase goods from my shop because some have money in their mpesa accounts and may need to withdraw in order to transact.
I will buy 1 bale for chapati $14,1 bale of cooking flour $12,sweets $6,drinking chocolate for $11,bath soaps $11,detergents $8,exercise books $14 and biscuits cartons $10,baking powder $5,polythene bags for putting customer shopping $2.
