Pure Green Grocery
Purity Kioko lacked business skills, steady income, and capital for a stable grocery. After Civicom Aid coached her in start-up, pricing, marketing, customer care, management, and financing, she borrowed money and opened Pure Green Grocery.
Pure Green Grocery is a survival-stage business with customer demand, but it risks collapse because tomatoes spoil quickly, collect dust, lose value, and discourage buyers.
Purity seeks USD 1,200 for a freezer, raised display table, clean crates, additional stock, and mentoring. This support will improve storage, hygiene, customer trust, product display, and daily sales.
Her growth plan is to build a cleaner grocery, use simple social media marketing, serve local customers, start bicycles door-to-door delivery, and gradually supply Mombasa tourist hotels when stock, hygiene, and delivery crates are available.
The project is inspired by Bonge Grocery in Likoni, which grew from survival stage to a stronger business employing eight people as sellers, accountant, and procurement. Civicom Aid will not treat this as a guarantee, but as a local example of what structured business support can help achieve.
With the right support, Pure Green Grocery can reduce food waste, create five jobs, and help employed parents return children to school. Civicom Aid will track sales, stock loss, customer growth, jobs created, income changes, receipts, photos, and children returning to school.
