My Business

I majored in fruits and vegetables since the population is in high demand for this commodities.The land has got a high population which actually demands for these products.Mostly children require for this commodities for their effective growth.This business is really interesting because its in high demand and its profit margin is reasonable.In this case you can realize a profit amounting to more than 50%The profit realized from this business enables me to cater for my house rent ,boost the business,investing for the future and paying other bills.So I look foward in expanding my business.

Fridah - Congratulations you are now fully funded! It is very honorable of you to pay school fees for your younger siblings - you are a good sister to them. What types of fruit do you sell? What is most popular? I'd be interested in more pictures if you get a chance. God bless you and yours and all our best! Jim
