About Me

My names are BAYA TSOFA MWENI, from Malindi Kenya. I was very bright in primary school but that didn't help me much in secondary school. Coming from a very poor family I mostly missed classes to do some work to get fees. I ended getting a lower grade (c-) and that why I ended working as a Cleaner at Casino Malindi. The salary being small I couldn't manage to assist anyone as every penny went to debts. We started a merry go round with my work mates and I invested my share in buying tomatoes, cabbages. Bananas, onions for resale at a profit. Am now able to get my daily bread from their. I feel exploited working for ten thousand a month but because I do work night shifts am able to run both my business and the job. Am still doing. my business outside someone, house but God willing Intend to have a secure place where I can leave my stock at close of business..

My Business

The sources of my Income for now are from the business and the salary from my job. I have a very fertile piece of land which is 300 metres away from a lake. My plan is to grow my business and become the wholesaler of my products . My stock that is the cereals, the tomatoes. Potatoes., Brinjals, onion s, bananas are available all round the year and so I can feel secure doing this business as it is a must for people to eat.
