My Business

I have set up a small grocery store near the lower hospital gate at Tenwek Mission Hospital.@ years ago when I joined the hospital,I saw the huge need for fresh fruits and vegetables here.My immediate market is the hospital staff,the doctors,nurses,patients,visitors and even students.Some of the doctors and nurses are expatriates o Caucasian origin and they love fresh quality fruits such as bananas,apples,oranges,sukuma wiki,spinach and a local indigenous fruit that they love so much called ISAGEK.I buy my fruits and vegetables for Ksh2000 or USD22per day from the nearby Silibwet market.I sell them for about ksh2500 a day or USD30.I make a profit of Ksh500 or usd30 per day.I pay the lady that I employed and remain with something small.There is competition but my clients prefer mine because I am so hygienic,my goods are fresh and quality and my prices are competitive.The challenges I have is capital to improve my stock and structure.
