Shida.

[Okiya]

I've wanted to do farming as a side hustle.
Shida huwa market. Sijui kama ni brokers ama conmen but the fact that getting market for produce is difficult makes farming unattractive to me. Wakulima how did you hack it?

What business you targetting boss

 

[Bolo Yeung]

build a relationship with your target buyer before the produce is ready, if it's a restaurant make them know in advance, what most people looking for produce need is a constant supply not just one batch, if you can create a system with constant supply of crop then you can get loyal customers

What business you targeting boss

That is the main thing. Once you know what you want then you carry out in depth research on it even before the hoe hit terra firma.

Like tuseme you do poulty, a restaurant needs constant supply not just 20 chicken and that's it, they would rather deal with a supplier who can deliver constantly in order to keep their clients satisfied, even small scale consumers nobody likes to go to the market and find some good produce only to come back the next week and find nothing.
