My name is Christabel Ngumbu, born and raised in Nyeri and a firstborn in a family of four. I’m a married woman and a mother to a baby boy. I reside in Ol kalou a sub county of Nyandarua county. I went to Ol jororok Primary later joined Nyahururu Girls High. After High School, I enrolled for CPA course where i attended evening classes and hustled during the day to make ends meet. I was lucky to get employment 2 years after college but the salary can’t cater for all of my family’s needs so I ventured into second hand clothes early last year and added other goods that are on demand on day to day life. I enjoy going for Safaris now that my son is still young.
I started my business in February 2016 selling second hand clothes later added sandal , various plastics bags etc ( called mali mali). These kind of goods are affordable to low income earners because they fit in the budget.
I chose this kind of business because the goods I offer are a must in most people’s daily lives and are affordable.
My typical costs includes paying county council, and rent. I have been using my profits to pay school fees for my siblings and improving my house
I want to buy two cartons of sandals each costing 7250 of sixty pairs for selling.also add two cartons of closed ladies shoes.this will help grow my business as the shoes And sandals are fast moving due to them being affordable.
