About Me

I am Gladys. I am a businesswoman based in Mombasa Kenya. I deal with food products mostly sale of cereals like corn and beans.
I normally get my stock from wholesalers and then I retail the products.

I am married with three young children who are yet to figure out their careers. However, they are doing well in school and I hope to guide them to choose careers that will suit their ability.

My Business

As mentioned above, I sell dry cereals form my small outlet. I sell small amounts ranging from one kilogramme to 50 kilogram bags. It is a profitable business but I get into challenges when harvest is not good because this makes the cereals very expensive and this erodes my profit margins.

Project Proposal

I will use the entire amount to buy 1 bag of maize (corn) and half a bag of dry beans. These are fast moving items and I hope to retail this stock within a very short time.

The increased sales will improve my take home amount and help my business grow.

    I need to adjust to a lower figure since that is what I can afford to pay at the moment. Thank you.
