Lady uses R350 grant to start a small business, now makes R400 daily
In a related story, Briefly News reported that big business moves almost always start small. A Limpopo woman knows this very well, having started her ever-growing muffin business when she lost her job during the worst parts of the coronavirus pandemic.
Mavis Maluleka decided she might venture into entrepreneurship even though she only receives R350 monthly from her government grant. The determined young woman put together what little she had and started selling muffins at R10 a pop in her own community.
Today, her small investment has paid off as she now makes R400 on an average day. The hustler is definitely proving no matter your circumstances, hard work can always effect positive change. Mzansi was definitely inspired by the change-maker.
