I was born and raised in the central province, I studied to to high school level due to financial problems that was facing my family, My life was full of mixed challenges and after revealing that i cant proceed with education i started searching for jobs in the private sector.
I got my first job were i used to be a supervisor for laborers at the industrial area for a baking company.
A year later my parents moved to the rift valley Eldoret because of post elections violence which left us homeless.
From Nairobi job i had saved some money and always wanted to start a business, After studying the area for some months i leases a space and started selling house holds which i found them to be in demand.
This was the turning point of my life, demand increased and i started making profits and ordering for new stock.
My mother whom was jobless i gave her a space and a job to manage the shop we now work together and she his the one who helped me get to understand the business well and improved the business.
I sell house holds for example, umbrellas, carpets, buckets, basins, spoons and many other items, In my country we all this kind of business "Mali Mali"
My shop is standing at a stock capital of 56,000 Kenya shillings and cash in hand of 29,000 Kenya shillings.
From this business i make a daily profit of 3 to 4 thousand Kenya shillings.
This money goes for developing my home, support brothers and sisters and investing back in the business.
I will use the granted amount to sum up my savings of 100 us dollars to 160 us dollars to buy house holds for sell.
Thank you
