About Me

,My husband and I moved in together but we did not have any source of income ,we skipped meals and I failed to attend clinic during my first pregnancy because of lack of money. My husband final got a job in a hotel and life started changing.He used his first salary to buy me sewing machine which , I started by working from the house since we didn't have enough money to use in the renting of a shop for the business.The business picked up well and I managed to rent a small room from where i ran my business.The business has now expanded and I have two assistants and three machines. I am happy with the business because it has helped me create employment and also helps me earn my living.
I love singing and dancing. I am the choir mistress in our church.During the free time we join with other church members to visit the sick,orphans and the elderly. I always fill good and fulfilled when I help the less disadvantaged in the society through moral support.

My Business

I do tailoring ,design and cloth making. I usually make African design cloths (vitenge) for men and women. I have a male and female assistants. The demand for the cloths is high and my target clients are tourists and locals. I also make cloths and supply them to retailers and that has boosted my business.
I choose clothing industry because it is profitable and enjoyable.
