I was born in a family of three children in Vihiga County which is in Western Kenya . As the first born, i grew up bearing the responsibility almost like that of the parent , making me come up as extremely open minded lady .
I started my basic education in Chugi Primary School where i graduated in 2017, after which i joined Koiwoarusen Secondary School where i graduated in 2022 . It is during my journey as a secondary school student that Covid _19 pandemic invaded our country . During this period , i discovered an inner strength as an entrepreneur, one i never knew i had within me .
I stayed with a relative who had for long traded in second hand clothes known as Mitumba in Kenya . She would leave me at the shop to run sales as she tool care of other things. Its here that i developed immense interest to have a business of that nature some day .
After graduating from high school , i got employed as a kitchen assistant at a hotel for one year, a period during which i raised capital to start my own business . First forward , this business has enabled me to take care of myself and my family members [ my parents and siblings].
I have a vision to open a bigger shop as i scale my business to greater heights . It is therefore my humble plea to everyone reading this to join in my vision and offer support where necessary in order to bring this vision to reality . Thank you in advance and be blessed .
My business deals with sales of Second hand clothes of all kinds , ranging from those of children, ladies and men's wear. I chose this business owing to the skills and knowledge i already had. In addition, these are fast moving goods that generate income at high speed.
It is from the sales of these goods that i have been able to fund my life and help my parents in paying school fees in part to my siblings and other day to day expenses.
This money will help me purchase clothes at a retail shop for sales; whose proceeds will be used for paying bills in part; while reciprocating the rest back into the business. This will greatly impact my life, that of my family and community that I provide with clothing.
