It's being a few days since I was in steemit....had wifi issues, now am back, am so excited I must say.
Today is market day, though it's a bit cold here because it's being raining a lot for a few weeks now, so you can imagine the mud. In Gikomba market, you can actually hire a gumboots for $1 and wear them as you do your shopping in the market, meanwhile they will be wiping your shoes, meaning you have to come back the same way and pick your shoes. One got to pay the bills...I thought wow,that's a clever way of making money but for today will be going to Korogosho Market.
Korogosho Market is 11 Km of North East of Nairobi. Business people like going they especially on Wednesday and Saturday those are the market days, where big traders bring they produce to the market. Most buy vegetables in wholesale and go and resell them.
You know presentation is key, how you display your work can either bring customers or chase them away. Here they are a lot of cereals, she uses the tin container to measure for you. People in these areas prefer to buy from such vendors because they are cheaper as compared to the supermarkets.
You got to love some fresh tomatoes. They vary in price, you choose the ones you like.
