About Me
My names are sarah munengi Guchu.iam 24 years old, born in muranga county,Kandara subcounty, Ngurweini location.That is about 60kilometers from Nairobi.i am the last born in a family of 7. That is 4 boys and 3 girls. After finishing my secondary school education i was not able to join college due to lack of fees. I have tried all sorts of job and am happy that regardless of the circumstances i have been able to stand. After working in different jobs and finally as a shop attendant i mananged to save some cash which i used to establish my own shop in nyambari limuru subcounty in kiambu county about 100 kilometers from my home and just about 40 kilometers from nairobi town where i deal with household goods, cosmetics, and i also offer mpesa services.
My Business
I started my business two years ago. My business entails household goods which i import from Tororo Uganda. I import quality blankets and bedcovers which are on demand due to the best quality. One blanket cost 1500ksh at Tororo and i sell at 3500. This means if i sell one blanket i get a profit of 2000ksh minus transport of 200ksh.the same case applies to bedcovers.i also have some cosmetic goods in my shop where i also offer mpesa services, I believe if i can get more financial support i can be able to reach more customers and maximize my sales and this way i can get more profit profit.
