About Me
My name is Carol, a single mother of one . I am an entrepreneur i am into cosmetics and groceries. I did my secondary education and wanted to train as a nurse but i dont have capital. I became pregnant and life was very tough for me until my parents gave me some capital to start business. I started this business a couple of months ago to have an income and so far I can say it's good. I am trying to meet people's needs in term of groceries and being able to deliver is really nice. I live in a community where women especially support each so i have joined a few groups where am working with other women to support each other in life. My daughter wants to become a pilot when she grows up.
My Business
I own and operate my own shop at chiwempala market. Its a busy area and so far business has been okay. I sell cosmetics for ladies which include perfumes. lotion, nail polish and other small needs for women. I on the other side also sell groceries assorted including soft drinks. I currently have employed one girl who is an orphan in my community but have trusted and am happy also being able to give job opportunity to someone is fulfilling. I am hoping that I will be able to expand and make more with your help. The only challenge i face is transport to get my goods because i travel some distance where i buy on wholesale.I make a profit of about k450 every week but if my business increase i will be able to make more.
