START A MINERAL WATER DISTRIBUTION BUSINESS IN KENYA AND MAKE OVER KSH.20,000 WEEKLY

*WITH SH.300,000 YOU CAN START A MINERAL WATER DISTRIBUTION BUSINESS AND MAKE OVER KSH.20,000 WEEKLY*

With an estimated 50,000 graduates that Kenyan universities produce every year not to mention other graduates from vocational training institutions, unemployment is becoming a real disaster.

It follows therefore that there is need for business ideas that can help, especially the youth to get engaged in and make a living and the bottled water distribution business is one.

In Kenya, bottled water market continues to thrive with sales estimated at Sh.12 billion per year and over 100 brands available can provide a niche market for distributors.

Being one of the essential commodities in every society, water actually falls under fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) that sales quickly and at a relatively low cost.

With Sh.300,000 you can venture in the distribution of bottled mineral water and be sure of making cool cash on a weekly basis.

First, you can start by buying some two second hand motorcycles which are relatively cheaper as compared to tuktuks or band new ones.

There are several online sites in Kenya where you can find people selling secondhand motorcycles at between Sh.35,000 and Sh.55,000.

For instance, a Tornado of 125cc and still in high performance can be found at Sh.35,000 on pigiame.co.ke while a Boxer Bajaj of 150cc goes at Sh.40,000 on the same site.

Let us assume you settle on two that costs Sh.40,000 each of which you can operate one as you employ another person to help you with the other, you will still remain with Sh.220,000 that can enable you to go for some bottles of water.

At Sh.15 each (wholesale price), you can actually buy 14,666 bottles of 300ml which you can distribute at Sh.17 per bottle and make an extra Sh.2 per bottle.

This will arrive you at Sh.249,322 translating to Sh.29,322 gross profit a week.

If you minus about Sh.5,000, your operation costs which include fuel, labour and other expenses weekly, you will remain with Sh.24,322 in a single week, Sh.97,288 net income in a month and further Sh.1,167,456 net in a year .

That is how simple you can become a millionaire in a year. However, this will depend on the effort put to realise daily goals as with business you need to be timely and consistent to match or even outdo your competitors.

Even if the wholesale price of the 300ml mineral water bottles can be increased to Sh.25 from Sh.15 given the fluctuation nature of the Kenyan market, you can still make some profit just at a distribution rate of Sh.2 up per bottle.

In business, it is that small margin that will make your service be sought-after by your clients and hence have an edge over your competitors.

Remember, in every business there are risks but it takes a leap of faith to invest in ideas which are well calculated, planned and implemented to realise good returns.

In fact, this idea that can also apply well with Coca-Cola, Pepsi and other soft drinks which are in the category of FMCGs.

HOW TO START A PROFITABLE COURIER BUSINESS IDEA IN KENYA

*HOW TO START A PROFITABLE COURIER BUSINESS IDEA IN KENYA* Delivery service is a booming business in Kenya that gained momentum from the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. Individuals, entities and businesses relied on delivery services to bring documents, parcels, and goods to their destinations, minimizing movements. The business is accelerated by trends in technology, youthful population and increased disposable income from a Kenyan middle class growing at an average annual rate of 5%. There is no doubt that Kenya‘s business environment has improved over the years and many investors have set up shop in all major towns across the country. This has further created fresh demand for speedy delivery of goods and packages – a need that has not been properly met by the national postal service. The few big courier companies that rule the industry on the other hand have not been able to match the efficiency that most clients are looking for. According to research, clients are looking for courie...

HOW TO RAISE MONEY FOR YOUR BUSINESS IDEA

*HOW TO RAISE MONEY FOR YOUR AGRIBUSINESS IDEA OR ANY OTHER BUSINESS IDEA* You have a great agribusiness idea but you need money to actualize it. This is usually the problem that faces many young farmers in Kenya. This is the problem that I faced when I started out.  Let’s face it, it’s never easy to raise money to start a farming business in Kenya. Farming start-ups are considered as high-risk ventures and everyone who has heard the sad stories that happen on the farm are afraid of it.  Banks are afraid of them. They can only give you money if you have already started something and a stable cash-flow can be seen trickling into your account. If they cannot see any evidence to this, they will not listen to your wonderful agribusiness idea. Farming is just any other business and should be treated as such. The only difference is that farming has more risks involved, and many beginner farmers who get into farming usually don’t get out alive (Succeed).  This is why everyone is...

BUY A COW AT KSH.18,000, SELL IT DOUBLE OR TRIPLE THE PRICE - BEEF CATTLE FATTENING BUSINESS FOR QUICK PROFITS IN KENYA

*BUY A COW AT KSH.18,000, SELL IT DOUBLE OR TRIPLE THE PRICE - BEEF CATTLE FATTENING BUSINESS FOR QUICK PROFITS* With this population, Kenya being a ‘nyama choma’ nation, every Kenyan consumes an average 15 to 16 kgs of red meat annually. Cattle farming is one of the most practiced agripreneurship, especially in the ASAL parts of the country where crop farming is undoable. Most of the cattle kept in these areas are primarily for beef. It is estimated that the ASAL areas account for about three-quarters of the estimated 14 million beef cattle reared in the county. The Boran cattle breeds are the most reared owing to their superior characteristics. They have the ability to withstand periodic shortages of water and feed, the ability to walk long distances in search of water and feed, and the ability to digest low-quality feeds. Picture this on beef farming in Kenya: A Maasai herder could have a herd of 200 animals, keep them locally for 5 to 10 years with attachment and not sell them to r...

LAND BUYING AND SELLING BUSINESS IN KENYA

*LAND BUYING AND SELLING BUSINESS* In almost every community in Kenya, owning a piece of land has been a coveted investment and with increasing population, this has become even more urgent. The desire (or is it lust) by every Kenyan to own land or a home has reached alarming proportions. Every Kenyan now wants to own a home and stop paying rent.  Starting a land buying business can be a very lucrative venture. Demand for land for farming, building a home or just for speculation is very high all over the country. You can make a kill by buying land and selling off after some time.  Land prices will always appreciate due to this unsustainable demand. *What you need* Land buying and selling business is very easy to start. You will not need any equipment. In fact you can even start without an office. What you will need is enough cash to buy the land.  Your profit margins will be much higher if you buy in big acreage and sell in smaller plots. You may choose to register a compa...

WHAT IF MY BUSINESS FAILS ?

*WHAT IF I FAIL?* Well, what if you succeed? Why have you chosen to see this half-glass of water as ‘half-empty’ instead of ‘half-full’? The fear of failure is the most crippling reason why many of us will never start a business in our lifetime. We admire successful entrepreneurs as if they knew from the beginning that they would succeed. You should know that they had the same doubts like you do. They all feared for an uncertain future, an irregular income and total failure. What if you fail? What if your business idea doesn’t sell or work? While these are very important questions, you may never know the answers unless you try. In the world of entrepreneurship, success and failure live in the same house. If you’re afraid of failure, there’s a very thin chance that you will ever taste success. How do you win a boxing match if you’re afraid of entering the ring? Business is, and has always been, about taking risks. That’s why entrepreneurs are known as ‘risk takers’. There is always an e...
