Thanks to Zidisha and her friends for their financial assistance, I can now buy a fruit stall table, allowing me to neatly arrange my fruit on the tables. Previously, I only placed it in small baskets and laid out mats at the edge of the market. Now it's easier for buyers to see and more practical. And I can also add more fruit to my inventory, which can increase my sales turnover.comment image

The broilers brought in good profit, as I had low mortality rates. I had a huge help throughout the project from a neighbor with recurring excellent expertise with poultry farming. The profit along with sales from my tomatoes and brinjals enabled me to purchase more broilers and starting feed

At Apollo Cyber Solutions, we have extended our services to working some few hours in the night. This is due to heavy Customer traffic and congestion as the current printer is slow, forcing us to extend working hours in order to serve customers who come for printing services. Our goal is to meet customer needs and ensure customer satisfaction is met, that is why Apollo Cyber Solutions works so hard even upto late hours. With a fast printer, printing services can be done promptly and with ease, ensuring each customer gets their printing services in very fast manner. Support my vision of purchasing a new fast printer and we shall solve a problem in my existing community here in Segero Village, Kenya.comment image

My success in selling my own processed snacks makes me very satisfied, and what's more, the regulations for selling for small traders are very easy here because they only need to think about rental costs and a strategic location. The keys to success that I hold are only high hygiene standards and selling prices commensurate with the quality and quantity of the product. With good business planning and financial management for daily living needs and future business expansion plans, my life is more comfortable like this compared to being an employee with a salary below the standard of living.

Another coconut supply arrived today from a local coconut farmer in my area. I'll process it into grated coconut and coconut milk on the same day. And, friends, old coconuts have a much more concentrated nutritional content in their flesh than young coconuts. Their thick, dense flesh is a source of healthy fats (especially Medium-Chain Triglycerides or MCTs), high in dietary fiber, and various essential minerals like manganese, copper, and magnesium.comment image

Friends, sapodilla fruit is becoming rare, but many people are still looking for it, because it is rich in benefits, such as the fruit itself contains very high fiber so it can facilitate digestion, besides that, boiled sapodilla leaves are also often used by some people for joint inflammation and controlling blood sugar.comment image
