I grew up in western province , the currently called busia county. This is where i grew up annd schooled for both my primary and secondary education. After my studies and id not pass my exams very well so i sought to seek employment in a near by sugar factory where i did manual jobs. i worked here for approximately three years and then i quitted the job and hired a farm where i planted my own sugar cane which i keep selling to mumias sugar factory. the culture of where i live is that we are farmers and we depend on sugar cane and maize cultivation. I have conducted this business over time, and it has helped me save and open other businesses.
The business i basically do is farming. i have a three acre piece of farm where i plant sugar cane. after they mature i sell to a sugar factory from where i get income from. this is the business that ven my parents do since we hail from a sugar belt.
i also rear some goats and cows , from where i get milk for my family and the surplus i sell to my neighbors.
i also plant some vegetables such as kales, onions and cabbages , which i sell to a nearby market.
me and my wife too have a small business of selling fish along the road side every eving during market days,.
I have saved and opened a gas supply business. I need capital to buy gas cylinders. As well as money to do the refilling.
