About Me
I am a father of two children Anet and Mike, i went to Kakamega primary school and Kakamega high school.I then went to Bukura Technical institute for a diploma in Agriculture. I looked for a job for two years after college and managed to get a job with an NGO however the job was 6 months contract and when it ended I had to look for another job.
After the end of my job I was pessimistic about looking for another job,armed with my knowledge and $250 capital.I leased two acres farm and started planting maize,the returns have been good and I have since diversified into horticulture as alternative source of income since maize take quite along time.
my Anet wants to be a doctor and mike wants to be a pilot . I give them the best education to enable realize their dreams.
I play basketball and watch soccer during my free time.
My Business
I sell dried corn and vegetables to my clients. I am grow white corn two seasons a year.I also have an vegetable farm where I grow tomatoes,kale's,cabbages and onions .
Food produce is very important in any society and people always have to eat . I always keep my maize and sell it only when prices are good.
I choose these business because it was the profitable and also because i had knowledge about the business.
