My stock is worthy ksh 90000, but I continue to buy more cereals gradually, but during this holiday I am expecting to buy more because it is harvesting period, but the main challenge facing my business is lack of money as to fulfill my goal to create employment and to expand by business to other area such as Tee, Tangi-Tano and Kiambogo trading center.
