As you understand my background i am a Kamba but i stay at Busia-Western kennya.I was working with a clearing and forwarding firm-Bollore Africa Logistics but a time come when the company decided to lay off some employees and i was among the employees who were affected..Thank God we were paid all our dues.the money which i got was my starting capital..i deed research and realized the maize at uganda side are very cheap so i started buying then taking to our place kitui during the dry spells..the biggest challege is the the business is a seasonal business..but as i grow in my biseness,i have identified another big business of importing photocopying papers from China then selling locally...its a business that needs a lot of capital but am determined to do it by 2017.i have big Dreams because i believe in myself and i know God will enable me...Zidisha will take me through my dreams..
Stock my shop with soya beans.
A bag of 90kgs costs 100 dollars. Exchange rate 93.=9,300.
Selling per kilogram is
1. 5dollars =ksh140. (90*140=12,600)
My profit will be:12600-9300=3300.
With the amount that i have applied from zidisha.. it will enable me purchase that one bag of beans and sell it within a very short time as I continue repaying my loan back...
