Story time! Last year we @JadaCoffee received a grant Ugx 75,000,000 from NSSF Hi Innovator Program to buy a coffee Roaster to boost our production! In the picture below that is when we imported the machine! What an exciting experience for an entrepreneur! That sounds like it’s a smooth experience but it has been rough! As an entrepreneur you dream of the day you will get a financial booster for your business and when that day comes, you feel relieved. That Roaster and its importation cost more than what I had anticipated but the goal was to make sure it gets here and we roll. As entrepreneurs we have to find solutions for our businesses otherwise dreams die. That almost gave me a heart attack because I had a deadline to submit to my innovation hub/NSSF a report with evidence-Photo that I had acquired a roaster. Some of you saw that tweet when URA couldn’t release the machine and was asking millions of money yet the policy is clear that Agricultural machinery is exempted from taxes. I finally got the exemption letter! The machine is here, I have acquired a stand alone which needed renovations and adjustments to fit a production house. Another cost! In August we then opened and it was all going well. We improved our quality and increased production. We helped 7 companies start their own coffee brands and registered 5 coffee companies to roast with us. Mid November Thieves robbed the place and took most of the machines and other Roastery things. With the help of the police we recovered the grinder & computer, the rest up-to this day have never been recovered. We had to buy more things to start operating. We resumed in January and so far we are slowly picking up! This story is to empower and motivate entrepreneurs that no matter what comes your way, keep it going! Sometimes you see companies but every company is struggling with something! DON’T GIVE UP!
