My name is Cornelius Sichalwe a very ambitious and determine young man. Being raised in one of the poorest district in Zambia, located in Shangombo area of Western Province. Gave me the zeal to work extra hard as a small boy. Being the 5th born child and last born in the family of 5 children, 2 girls and 3 boys. My parents were just general workers who worked multiple jobs to make ends meet , but we often went to bed with empty stomachs . Regardless of hard times at a tender age , I was determined to break the cycle of poverty and make difference in my community. Despite the financial struggles my mother and my father encouraged me to focus on education. I worked hard academically and my grades at school were very pleasing after completing senior secondary school, I earned my self a schoolarship to study Engineering Auto Mechanics at Mongu Vocational Training Centre. While I was in Mongu Vocational Training Centre , I was also working part time jobs to support myself in terms of groceries and my family. However, through perseverance I managed to graduate and I obtained a Diploma in Auto Mechanics. Because of the passion I have in business I really struggled to find some money. Funds to start my own business was very challenging but finally after months of perseverance I ventured into an own business and opened my Auto Shop . I secured funding through multiple part time jobs and opened the shop. It was a dream come true and I employed two staff to be assisting me as it is a very busy shop and traffic of customers.
I'm very much involved in Auto Shop business and I sell motor vehicles accessories and spare parts of different motor vehicles such spider belling, head lamps, tail lights, wheel shocks . wheel belling, gear box, lubricants, engine oils , oil filter , window screen and tyres. I started the business with the net capital of K50, 0000.00 and I generate the net profit of K 6000.00 per week and per month I generate a total profit of K 24,000.00. I intend to expand the business because demand for Auto spares sparts keep increasing nearly every day and such I need more working capital to invest in the business as this will help me generate more revenue and create more job opportunities for the youth in the community. The profits made will be used to help me to life the warfare of my my family and improve the living standard and also support vulnerable in the community especially old women and the orphans in need.
