my name is Tarsy Karambu. i am a business person. i operate second hand business within Thika Town.

i have been in the business for 4 years now. the shop has really grown as it is now my main source of income.

i started with 5,000/= shillings from my own savings. i was later retrenched and majored in growing my clothe business. i pick by clothes from Nairobi at a wholesale price and resell at a retail price. one piece of clothe gives a maximum of 70% profit.

I will use the money to introduce a nail parlour. This will help in creating job opportunities to the young people who have finished their O level education. I will use the profit in expanding or opening more branches
