Now, in a follow-up discussion, Fikile explains that she would love to open another two pie stores, although she is not sure about the exact date:
“I am still building the business and the brand. I am not certain when the second store will be opened.
“However, I anticipate the store to open at least towards end of March, by God's grace, in Mabopane.”
Fikile notes that the third store will be in Ga-Rankuwa, with the loving mom emphasising that she started very small:
“I am using a small oven. I invested from my accounting firm. I have to be truly honest, I started very small.
“We bake the pies and also get supplied. I use my house to bake, then due to limited equipment, I order a few from a supplier.”
Gauteng supermom has plans to expand her business
Fikile is set on creating the best life for her son through her various endeavours:
“I am really praying and hoping the business becomes a franchise. I really do not want to get excited over the trend on the socials, or for it to get to my head.
“I want the business to grow and still have impact with or without the noise from the socials. My son relies on it, and I also rely on it. Currently, I am still building.”
The inspiring woman advises single mothers to start small and build themselves up, bit by bit.
