I am an accountant by profession and after working for over 10 years in a formal sector I decided to start my business of selling hardware equipments and building materials.

The name of the shop is "Jaba Hardware" and is a brand name of the whole estate and many customers prefer my goods because they are of high quality and I provide better customer service. I have employed two workers to help deliver the goods to my customers on time.

I sell building equipments such as hammers, saws, nails, priers and building materials such as sand, ballast, stones, timber, iron sheets and sanitary wares.
