Am Denis Ouma ,i was born and bred in Seme in Migori county in Kenya. I grew up fishing at a local river, that was the main activity we did after school, during the weekends and during school holidays,we sold the fish we caught at the local market in Dede and it helped me pay for my school fees as my parents were poor.I managed to attend high school from the little money i made from fishing and from other menial jobs i deed,Fortunately for me i got a well wisher who paid for my college education at the Kenya medical training college in Kisumu.After my college i worked as a pharmaceutical assistant in a local pharmacy for three years.I started my pharmacy shortly after that from the little savings i got.I love Rongo town because business starts very early in the morning and ends late in the evening.My hobby is making new friends and reading new books.My daughter wants to be a musician when she comes of age.
My business is mainly about human drugs, i sell pencil, cal pol diclofenac, malaratab, and many other drugs used to treat fever, malaria , colds flu and many other ailments.. People use this drugs after prescriptions from doctors and other medical problems they have. I love this kind of business because i make a living out of it, and i also get to serve my people in the community.I face expenses from,payment of the shop rent to county council charges. I make ksh 40000 every month and i reinvest this money back into the business and to carter for my family.comes of age.
I will buy calpol syrup for the treatment of fever and pain in children.This will cost me $65 for two dozens the remaining $35 will be deducted as my membership fees for zidisha,. After selling all of this i will make $10 ,and i sell this for one week.I will be able to pay the loan an reinvest the money many times over,i will also be able to offer treatment to many children.
