About Me

i was born in apoor backgaround where my parents hustled day by day for our upkeep i am the second born in a family of seven siblings.i personally am afour four graduate;after graduating from my form four i entered in the street and started hustling hard .i would wake up early in the morning and go on mjengo job..i would help feed my family with a few coins i earned and saved the rest..what is saved from that time i used them to start the mutumba clothes business

My Business

i started my business almost one year ago .i choose this type of business because it cheap to start and the second hand clothes fetch a faster market expecially to the youths.with a typical cost of five thousand you can start your business,on a good day i can earn up to a profit of 1000-1500.the profit i get i reinvest some in the business and the rest i help the family members on the upkeep

Loan Proposal

i will go to gikomba and purchase mutumba clothes which one pieces varies from 20,40,60 depending on the quality of the piece.this will enable me earn a living as well as to pay tax to the country.it will also create market to those who bring the mutumba clothes in gikomba..it might increase my profit from 500 to1000 or 1500 on all days.

    New stock for my mutumba clothes business. mitumba is a Kenyan name for second-hand clothes, handbags, school bags, and shoes. A mitumba business is one of the most lucrative businesses you can start with little capital. The sale of mitumba has changed many people’s lives, especially the youth who fail to secure formal employment.

    Middle-class Kenyans refer to second-hand products as “okoa jahazi” (save the yacht) since they are quite affordable and budget-friendly. All you need to do is play your cards right. Here is how to start mitumba business in Kenya.
