This is what Purity Wambui says about the Mitumba business for those who are wanting to get a foot in the door.
Purity Wambui says
Mtumba iko hivi
A woman assures you atakuonyesha kazi very easily unlike huyu pury wa kiburi ,
Unapelekwa kwa store unagongwa Malaki
Last year a lady approached me with 500k
I told her how Mtumba is hard and tricky especially if you are doing it in gikomba market
I advised her to get a good space and have a very big shop where she will be opening bales and selling to consumers, she walked away sad that sijamsaidia
She later approached another lady who told her that she can help ,she gave her 1m which the helper told her that amepatia mhindi who was to be supplying them bales ,1 year later she has never gotten even a single bale ,the helper told her that mhindi alihepa na pesa and their is nothing she can do juu sio yeye amekula
I might not be the best ,I am very arrogant and rude
Roho mbaya na sura mbaya degreeless woman
But I am honest ,I will tell you the truth as it is
My hands are clean , i eat my sweat ,I don’t sugar coat ndio nikuuzie
Don’t like me but be careful huku kwetu ni kunoma
We chose to post exactly as she wrote so that we do not misquote her. This woman definitely has a fiery temper but to her credit, she has amassed a huge fortune, selling second-hand clothes from China.
