My business deals with furniture inventories like sofa sets, tables, Sugar dishes, chairs, PVC cellings, wardrobe and like. My materiasl i fetch them from the hardwares and sawmills. my stock as per now is worthy $300 dollars and still expanding since the customers are in need of the items as the enter to new houses especially here in town. i choose these business since its works with local and available materials.I normally get a profit from the items when i sell them at around $ 450 dollars when per every month making a profit of 150&. So my business is making out of the items i normally make 33% . This caters for my saving $50, house rent 20$

best regards
I will make an addition $ 3 dollars to make it $ 7 dollars and buy tinted screen for my wallunit furniture. it will make my product to have a fashionable finish up and attract an invitation for more customers. My business will increase the profit from 33% to 37%.
