Starting a business in Kenya is absolutely one that’s worth taking.
The absence of capital should never stop you from dreaming. There are so many businesses that can be started with practically no money.
The following is a list of businesses you can start with nothing.
Broker
It’s one of the best businesses one can start in Kenya with no capital. Business entails how an individual is well connected in a particular field/ area. Being a broker will involve connecting buyers and sellers to complete a transaction for a wide range of assets, including shambas, vehicles, cattle, farm produce and many others. Brokers are usually compensated in commissions or fees that are charged once the transaction between the buyer and the seller has completed.
Academic writing
Though sometimes considered illegal, academic writing is a very popular business in Kenya as it is one of the most common ways of becoming self-employed. It would be best if you were equipped with a computer/laptop and reliable internet. Most people opt to do online writing part-time. However, some have made it their main source of income.
There are three options for how to become an online writer. You either get hired, register for an account or buy an account. If you are new to online writing, getting hired is most recommended. All you have to do is look for people who have accounts and are looking to hire writers.
Making Mud-bricks
Mud bricks are mostly preferred for cooler, cheaper, and more environmentally friendly homes than stone houses. To start a mud-bricks business, one will only need to mix earth with water and fillers such as straw, place it in a mold, and wait to dry.
Traveling Salon
on demand is the new way of doing business. Nowadays, people do not have time to move to beauty salons because of many work-related demands. It is, therefore, good thinking to target them from wherever they are. And such customers are ready to pay a reasonable amount of money provided your services are excellent.
Car Wash service
Most car wash services require no amount while starting since they are mostly operated behind ponds or rivers. Over time you can save money to purchase more sophisticated car cleaning equipment for easy service delivery.
