My Business
my business is selling mobile phones and accessorie such as batteries headsets cables and phone covers.the business is doing well and im able to sustain a living though not to my expaectations.i would like to enroll in a cooking college and become a chef coz i love to cook.i want to save enough money to that hence i would like to grow my business by buying more cellphones and accessories.my aunty told me about zidisha and i thought i should apply.i usually order the phones from lusaka and i sell them at a small stand that i have in town
