Ladies vari k*tengesa zivai k*ti ma cost e product haagumire pa landing price chete. Ukahodha weave dzako ku China dzika lander ne $2, there are other costs you should factor in until product iyoyo izonzi yatengwa. Ma costs akafanana ne rent kana uchitengesera mushop, advertising costs etc. Zvino iwe woti zvasvika ne $2 Saka regai ndidziite $3 unogona k*tonyura usati watanga. Example wahodha dziri 100 meaning dzasvika ne $200. Wobva wati regai ndiite ma $3. Hazvireve k*ti dzikatengwa dzese uchawana $300. Profit igoita $100 aiwa.

Let's say weave dzapera ne 2 weeks. Pa $100 Yako iyoyo bvisa $20 ye transport yawashandisa 2 and from table Yako uchienda kunotengesa, $10 yawakadya chikafu, bvisa portion ye rent, maybe $25, bvisa $5 ye advertising. Watomu $60, Saka profit Yako yatoo $40. Ukasangwarira unosara usina chinhu usingambozvione k*ti ma costs anoenderera mberi kusvika product yapera.

Ndopakufira ma small staters hobho, they base mark up ye product ne landing price. At the end of the day ak*tadza kubhadhara rent.

Unoona achinzi aita mbiri shop yake inogara yakazara her small profit quick return , otohaya more staff izvo munhu Ari k*tonyura zvake. Ndopaunozoona runner achinzi akapihwa Mari yema order nevanhu kwakurova pasi, anenge anyura akuedza kukavhira. So be very careful when calculating mark up yekuisa pa product Yako.

Zvekuisa profit dzema 10 cents zvinoitwa nema company akura mu business a reacher inonzi economies of scale, kwete isu zvedu ana Mai Kyro tichiri kuhodha staff ye $200.

Another piece of advice, kana uchiri k*tanga business , wawana product iri pa demand usamhanye kushare k*ti hee Ini ndinohodha ku China mall. Unoudza nevamwe vane loads of cash lying around yek*ti vanonohodha hobho vakakudhingura ukanyura. Anobva atopihwa ne stock price yek*ti anosvika achisvikotengesa muno ne price yaunohodha nayo iwewe ku China mall ikoko. Imbo enjoyer wo price yekunge uri MONOPOLY. Don't listen kuvanhu vanoti Zimbabwe yese ungaipedza. Yes panguva yacho imboedza ku supplier Zimbabwe yese zvinoitwa nana Mr Freeze nana Coca cola. Goal re business is to make money, and Mari inouya ne large market share Yako iwewe mu business, the larger the market, the greater the profits. Mavolume maunoti hee ku pusher volume anopushika only when there are few suppliers of a product that is in demand. So yes, make it your goal to supply Zimbabwe yese, ukaipedza wopinda mu Zambia, kwete zvekungotaura k*ti hee enda pa dragon city kune wese abvunzwa k*ti zvako ukuhodhepi. Ma competitor agara anotongotaura zvima statement nek*ti vak*todawo kupinda mu business and kana apinda haambokunzwire tsitsi k*ti ndiwe wakamuudza mukoto, anotokuburitsa mu business agokudhingura, Client Yako ikauya kwaari haamborege kuitengesera nek*ti ndeyako.

NB Don't forget kuuya ku end of year event ye Loft & Main iri kuitwa musi wa 31 October 2026 timbodzidzisana about saving and improving our lives. Next year projects are going to be 🔥🔥🔥. We are scaling up land group purchase for women by women (Boys Too).

How are you all selling your staff? Vari muma malls zviri kufaya here? What advice do you give small starters?

When I was pa Fairview Mall muna Robert Mugabe opposite old meikles the table was too small to display all my items... Rent was $60 per month, muskana $50 per month plus transport.. My stuff was really beautiful but nyaya yema table there is just too much competition inside and then mukati me Mall hamupinde vanhu vakawanda for you to even get noticed to be honest muskana would sell maybe $27 per day some times $14 chaiyo and we are talking of high quality zvinhu zvakanaka at reasonable prices I would even attach pictures of shoes dzandaiti $7 if I had time.. But haaah kwaiva kubhadhara rent mahara.. Now I found a place yekusiya zvinhu zvangu mu town and I advertise a lot on social media groups.. If you search my posts on Facebook you will find them.. Per day I sell nearly $187 to $200.. Not to brag but tomorrow morning nditori ne order ye one customer who wants stuff worth $35 from social media advertising and that's my first thing to do muskana akananga ku Gunhill in the morning.. I charge kombi fare for those who want us to come out of town.. Handina rent.. Ndine muskana chete who do deliveries... Kungotsvaga ka corner kekusiya zvinhu zvako mu town, some customers you direct them there especially kana uine hama ine basa riri flexible mu town.. If I show you ka corner kandainzi $60 per month ummm but it was a learning curve. You just have to master how to take good pictures and make sure your stuff is Good quality such that when you arrive kumba or kubasa kwe customer haishamisiki k*ti hezvo zvaari madhende nhai. Ndasiirira k*ti if you want a table in town usina hama yekusiira stuff yako go for ma table Aya ema $60 per month then wowana pekugara in town during the day advertising your stuff on social media and doing deliveries.. Don't go for ma table anodhura like Barbours Mall anonzi $300 per month it's just a waste of time and money
