I started making shaggy mats last year and so far it's been a thrilling journey. I also want to sell second hand clothes and shoes. The world of business is very challenging and requires a very sharp mind. Business has been slow for the past three months and this has made it difficult for me to make any meaningful progress, but with the patience that my business has taught me, I hope to make it through this difficult season. I have also learnt new things in the process which I hope to pursue to make positive progress.
I began making shaggy mats as a hobby, then later with the money I had acquired from my savings. This started from a simple KES 1000 that I had saved during a very difficult season. I say misfortunes can birth good things. I want to start this clothes business with only a few pieces of clothes. I intend to build it up to a wholesale level. For the shaggy mats, I also want to expand to a wider market as I also train other interested women at a fee.
I need to add more material to help me complete a new order that I have just received. The money I get from this project is not much but it helps the children. I wish to grow it to a larger scale. I appreciate every support that I get from this forum. I suffered a lot last year but with the support, I got here I have managed to recover.
