About Me

My entrepreneurial journey began with limited capital and a burning desire to meet my financial needs. Starting in the innerwear business, I sourced products from a wholesale dealer and sold them in various locations, even without a proper shop.

This path was fraught with challenges. I ventured into unfamiliar places, often facing rejection during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020. Despite the setbacks, I pressed on, engaging in door-to-door sales daily, even with slim profit margins.

My unyielding determination and passion for the business kept me going. I stayed focused on achieving results and met daily targets, persevering through every obstacle.

Every morning, I followed carefully planned routes, hawking my products. My commitment and passion turned this into a daily routine. Over time, I built a loyal customer base who could easily place orders through a dedicated WhatsApp group.

Through relentless determination, my business expanded, allowing me to rent a physical selling space. I started with just 1,420 Kenyan Shillings, and from that humble beginning, my business blossomed.

My message to fellow entrepreneurs is simple: Don't fear starting from the bottom. You don't need millions to pursue your dream business. With determination, even a small beginning can lead to remarkable success. So, take that first step, and you'll be amazed at where it can take you.

My Business

My inner wear, socks and sweater business is running well with customers from all over the town.

I sell the above to clients within town and outside on order and in social media.

Running a business for 4 years now trying my best to make ends meet, learning from my past, gaining experience and realising profits gives me courage to keep pushing.

Project Proposal

I will use the granted money to buy clothing's for my boutique, add stock as a way to expand my business.
