@DanielSolitei @BoardLotSultan Wah, hapo kwa opening of schools is so real.

@BoardLotSultan Only two times, during drought with no hopes of rain in the near future and during opening of schools.

Assuming normal seasons, what are the best months to buy Livestock cheaply in Kajiado, Bisil, Isinya, Narok. When its dirt cheap?

@BoardLotSultan @DanielSolitei Games of urban areas

@max_gitonga @DanielSolitei Kuna time nilipeleka ndume pale market makuyu, broker wanakuja 10am 11am 12noon 1pm 3pm 4pm all offering 10-15k to wear you down, kuvunja morale. Finally serious buyer anakuja hapo 5-6pm offering double the money. Chesaa

Beef Feedlot in Kajiado: where do you sell your steers? A finished steer in the yard is a liability. We categorize buyers into three: 🔸️ Institutional (Alpha/Farmers Choice, KMC, Hotels), 🔸️Retail: 🔸️Export (ME). Each has a different price point & bar for quality. 42a/n

@DanielSolitei @BoardLotSultan Obstacles gani bois?

@BoardLotSultan @max_gitonga Bthw I did a proposal on feedlot back in 2021 na nikasubmit AFDB. Kwenda ground work there were serious obstacles that hindered competition na the local traders.

@BoardLotSultan @DanielSolitei 😂😂

@DanielSolitei @max_gitonga Hapo Bisil market ukitokea na 20 bulls zimekula vizuri, bei inateremka kama suruali. That market vannot handle such huge supply. Hiyo ndio shinda ya hiyo retail local market

@BoardLotSultan @DanielSolitei To me, this depends on your risk appetite and willingness to undergo the added stress of going to the market. It is often more rewarding but with increased effort and stress. Na pia mambo ya cartels inaingia hapa😅 For some of my produce, broker anakujia kwa shamba tunamalizana

@DanielSolitei @max_gitonga Kwa hii plan. Tunauzia wale brokers wanaenda hiyo Bisil market. No plan to go to market ourselves. Acha broker akuje anunua ngombe apeleke market 🫶

@MiriamNduv72828 @MuneneInc I'm down for the taste test. And it has to be done in Mombasa or coast in general where people are masters at cooking the two.

@max_gitonga @MuneneInc Biriani has its own charm, but pilau is a classic! Maybe we can do a taste test and see which one wins hearts. Listen to the music of pilau and biriani as they battle it out on the table! 😄🍛

I gave Biryani a chance again the other day and….let me stick to Pilau tu

@BoardLotSultan @DanielSolitei Out here people are seeing bad things especially small scale guys. But of course if you scale up, you then adjust according to your market and mambo ya LPO na kutuma invoices become the norm.

@max_gitonga @DanielSolitei Kila mkulima na strategies zake. I like your cash on hand strategy 🤏🤏

@BoardLotSultan @DanielSolitei Hapa nikikamua ng'ombe zangu tatu naweza ingia center 6am na maziwa yangu na by 8 nimerudi shambani mnione tena jioni 4.30pm na maziwa ya jioni. Na hapo mambo ya sijui invoice na LPO hatutambui.

@DanielSolitei @max_gitonga Retail means supermarkets & butcheries. Hulipwi cash. Its the worst for cash flow

@BoardLotSultan @DanielSolitei In the west and other regions that regulate hawking and sale of farm produce, yes. In the Kenyan market ecosystem, retail is a bit different. Huku hata ukiuzia butcher ng'ombe unalipwa cash.

@DanielSolitei @BoardLotSultan Kama ile pesa ya maziwa yenye huwa hailali sio🤔 No stories, just pay up uende na maziwa tumalizane. It is even profitable in the mental health department ju kufuatilia pesa is not a joke.

@BoardLotSultan Retail is way much profitable. No waiting, cash at hand.

@_fels1 @Mall_oy Ati parcels😅 Wewe unataka kuguza passive income ya dere sindio🤔

@Mall_oy Last time I used a shuttle from Meru, it picked me at Chuka at 3 am. I arrived in Nairobi by 6 am. Now tell me how it's impossible to do a round trip for such a shuttle. Also, you didn't factor in parcels which are 300 bob per parcel.

A 14-seater shuttle from Meru to Nairobi charges Ksh. 1000. That's Ksh. 28,000 gross income to and fro. How much is fuel cost and how much will the owner be left with at the end of the day?

@DGAfrica_MFA @muri_marvin @DanielSolitei kuja kidogo. Naona ni kama utadiversify na matunda.

24 tons of apples from South Africa 🇿🇦and 6.9 tons of Kenyan 🇰🇪 fresh avocados were among the first arrivals of African agricultural products under the #ZeroTariffPolicy. Welcome!

@rex_maina One day I will open up about KNH.

Nikikumbuka the hospital runs i did from October to March because of my dad's health, the trauma i still carry from a broken health system, siwezi kaa na huyo same room.

@giveittome21__ We are many

@magatax 😂😂

nimeona ratatouille kwa my hidden gem ndio maana hizo bhajia ni tamu

@KaberiaCommoner @Aetherworks_C you might have a missed call here.

Full cost of building a 3 bedroom bungalow in Kenya is Ksh 400,000 only. Usiibiwe.

@KeKirwa @DanielSolitei kuja pande hii. Zile zako tuingize soko ama namna gani?

Nimenunua heifer 45k na nikauza 72k 6 hours later.

@thee_ben21 @ni_kiarie Anaku easy.

@ni_kiarie Unachuna majani siku mzima mpaka 5 pm alafu lori ya kuchukua inakuja 1 AM na saa hiyo kumenyesha vibaya sana. Alafu clerk anaangalia majani yako anasema urudi ukachague💀.

Mtu amelelewa kwa majani hawezi enda huku ati for experience juu ya ptsd.

If you don't upskill you'll suffer
