My Business
I operate a grocery shop,selling general shop items including foodstuffs such as bread, milk, sugar, flour etc.
I also operate Mpesa (Mobile money transfer). I am an Mpesa agent.
I also sale vegetables on the verandah of my shop.
I deal in tomatoes, onions, cabbages and irish potatoes.

a sack of irish potatoes for ksh 2,000/= and sale at ksh 2,800/=
and a sack of onions at ksh 2,500/= and sale at ksh 3,500/=
this will give me an additional profit of ksh 3,300/= per week.
