Hii ishachapa. 7k ni ndoto kwa hii gari. Hii ikienda sana ni 5k that is ukipata msee stingy otherwise hii ni gari ya 4k. Weekend utaambiwa upeane 3k. Gari mpya mpya ndo za 7k na 8k na hiyo ni after umeeka gari mafuta full tank na umelipa management ya sacco 2k or 2500 depending na sacco. 14 seater vile @Yuletapeli amesema ni 2-3k.

Hii unapeleka lunga pale outreach sacco. Unabeba na kinde

Why should sacco management take such a huge percentage of your earnings daily? 2500 is like 25% of daily earnings or 75k a month or 900k per year. That is too much money for management. They should be taking at most 5% ie 500 bob.

Lifespan inategemea na maintenance. Kwa mwaka hata 2m haitakuwa shida

Fungua sacco yako basi. Its that simple

Kuna kitu you DON’T tell us. Those 4k, 7k a day are myths… A seasoned operator aliniambia hizo gari hushinda garage at least one day a week. Plus day off. So you are looking at 5 days a week of income. Hio kbw looks like shida tupu. Hio looks like 3 days max a week. 624k a year (4k*52 wks) toa za karau, maintenance and shit. Hakuna kitu unapata. Plus thieving employees… My two cents.

Lorry mguu kumi ama hizo ma double diff and matatu kama sio mpya kutoka kwa factory wachana. Hio kbw even if you give it to me free, siwezi guza even with a stick. Sell it immediately. Been there. Story for another day. Hio doh 1.4m afadhadli biz kama ya gas or wholesale. Kazi ya kubebea watu mizigo or kubeba hizo punda zinaitwa Kenyans utajua hujui. Anyway that was my experience in those industries

Ukiingia hizo biz. Number one enda kwa chemist uulize dawa za pressure ni how much. For example your normal mguu kumi CXZ that delivers materials to your building site… Tyre the cheapest costs 26k. Pirelli /Michelin which comes with a new FVZ 100K. Margins per trip huwa 8k - 15k.

I had /“managed” a fleet of 3. Asubuhi you’ve made 150k. 10AM. by six jioni uko na fuliza. Tyre, booster, mechanic, karau, sijui kanjo, non-paying customers, kenha weighbridge .. Walai shida tupu. Hio biz is for thugs.

Especially cops. So you have a vehicle with 10 wheels that cost minimum 260k or max 1M. Three of them. You are bound to have one bald tyre. Na you how KE drivers hupeleka hizo vitu bila huruma.

Case ya tyres ukienda court (which I once went and lost) is 40k plus lawyer beste and lost time coz the car was impounded. So hapo karau hukula 5k. You do the math with those margins I’ve quoted hapo juu. Biz zingine ukiingia kama wewe sio mkora unafanyia wanaume wengine kazi.

On the flipside, I had a very lucrative venture where I would sell hizo materials kwa side. Especially sand one spade ilikua 18bob, wheelbarrow 250…jibebee venye unataka carrier bags, kwa boot ya allion. I don’t care.
Lakini I don’t bear those costs and risks of delivering materials to you.

Unaweza pewa order sijui Rongai, Kitengela whatever. After delivering materials the car is light kunyeshe you get stuck in mud for 3 days.

Hio biz chorea
