    l now plan on buying tins so that l can start making pudding.The tins don't cost much therefore when l do this fruit business like for two weeks, l will be able to buy the tins from the profit l will have made.This therefore means l will be able to complete paying my loan in the next few days so that you can advance me with another loan.

    l have been doing some research and discovered a new business idea. Its about selling of sausages.This business is on the rise and not many a people have known the advantages that come with it.1 packet of sausages cost 100 shillings and it contains 10 sausages per each packet.They are later sold at a price of 25 shillings each making 250 shillings,one is able to acquire 150 shillings profit.
