I am Pauline Muoki. I work as a secretary and currently into small scale part time business. I attended Donyo sabuk pri sch in 1990, Kawethei High school in 2002, later joined Don Bosco where i did my secretarial studes in 2007, then 2013 Joined IAT and did my DBCIT. I joined college without even my KCSE results due to fee arrears and later approached someone who paid the full amount and i was given the certificate which is very virtal in all intervies., I decided to start a part time business because i saw the diapers were on high demand n i knew where to get them on a whole sale. Umoja is a very promising business location, My son would like to be and Engineer. I like reading books and composing poems
I sell diapers called soft care, the goods are on high demand because they are good and affordable, I get 200 profit for each packet sold as a mark up. i would like to further my secretarial studies therefore looking for more capital to improve it and get more and more profit so that i can expand the business from retail to wholesale. I would also want to start selling other types of diapers and cover most place both rural and urban areas because they all need these items. My child wants to be an engineer when he grows up/
I will still add more stock of diapers and as i had said earlier am really looking foward to get more stock and supplies diapers in both urban and rural areas. i also would like to put more stocks of tissue papers, wet wipes, sanitary pads and other household soft items. I buy a packet at 520 shilling and sell it at 600 shillings only that gives me a mark up of 80 shillings and when i sell 10 packets i get 800 shillings after two weeks. This helps me to be self employed and i also see the opportunity to meet many peoples at an affordable price in even the slam areas of Nairobi. Am aiming to get atleast 30packets per day which will increase my profit to upto 2400 shillings per day and i know it is very possible
