I love the way some people prepare the future for their offsprings .Mtu kama @Uwes badala ya kufikilia ivi,he’s busy tearing apart pussies. bure kabisa
Never set up a business with the hope that your children will pick up from exactly where you leave. Your children’s interests may be elsewhere and they have every right to decide what line of business or career they will pursue, not necessarily what you plan for them. If you start a business hoping that your kids will inherit it, you might be in for a big disappointment. However, if your primary goal is to secure their future, I suggest you do what @Randy has suggested. Property is the best inheritance you can leave to your kids because it will almost certainly outlive you. Also, with property, you don’t have to worry about your kids having different business interests from you, because property is a passive investment. Hata wakiamua kukuwa musicians or DJ’s (kids these days), they can still multitask as landlords. I don’t think they can mill flour and spin on the decks simultaneously because both are active ventures.
Go with something that makes good use of your pick-up. Rentals require extra-huge capital and their returns are too far into the future and in small bits. On the other hand, a business requires much less capital and could be of help to more people apart from your children.
Flour milling, makes sense in all ways.
Ready market
Availability of supplies
Very little technical expertise needed
Easy to run
Has growth potential because current brands in the market have very little control
Possibility of expansion to other commodities like wheat and garam flour to spread risk
Could also expand to animal feeds
YEs…there is this milling machine from China a 3 in 1 that goes for about $3000 I wish to get, then mashamba I’ll be renting from farmers and also buying produce…milling and packaging…and selling. The idea is fully documented and well researched but banks wanasema its too risky…oh this ooh that…nitaamsha hii empire yangu ngoja tu…
Here is my starting machine
