My Business

In my plot which I have constructed shops in the front, I have a uniform shop where I sell school uniforms and pullovers(sweaters).I have a pullover knitting machine whereby I knit school pullover and sell them to parents with pupils in nearby school and during market days I sell the same to people even from far areas that come to the market. The school uniforms give me a profit of Kshs. 4000 per month. One pullover have a expenditure of an average Kshs. 400 and I sell it at a cost of an average of Kshs. 550 thus making a profit of on average due to the size of the pullover Kshs 150. In one week am able to knit 20 pullovers thus making a profit of about 3000. This gives a total of 1200 per month. I also sometimes get orders from schools to supply pullovers.
