About Me

I am a single mother aged 39 years old. I ahve two children who depend on me since they do not have stable jobs. I got my first child at an early age when I was still at primary school. I therefore stayed at home for one and a half years and went back to school thereafter.I continued with my education and managed to join high school. Unfortunately I dropped out of school at form two after an abrupt death of my grand father who was our sole breadwinner. I therefore opted to help my grandmother with home chores as I could not go back to schools as there was no one to pay school fees for me. It reached a point when I could not depend on them any further and I therefore decided to leave the village for greener pastures. I got employed as a house-help for a three(3) years and I managed to save some money and started a green grocer. I was in this business for one year and decided to change to another business. I started a small Beauty shop which am doing upto date. I would like to expland my busines

My Business

I operate a beauty and cosmetics shop. I deal in both men and ladies products like handbags, belts, earrings, necklaces, shoes, scarfs, socks, trousers e.t.c.

I also sell to other traders at wholesale prices and they go to sell to other customers. My customers like my shop because they say the prices are good. they also say that they like my services that is the way i service them. I also give my goods on credit and they do not fail me. my business is situated at a bus stop and therefore I am able to attract many customers. i also send my son to vendor the goods in the nearby estates. He does door to door services and sometimes goes to sell them in the city center and in the offices. some customers who are not able to travel send me to Kampala to bring them their goods and charge them a fee for the services. My monthly expenditure include house rent, transport,school fe
