“I need start-up capital because I would like to open a cake shop.”
Another issue Nondumiso faces stems from her needing to hire baking equipment since she doesn’t have any of her own – which plays a huge role in her inability to expand and start the cake shop of her dreams:
“I’m using a small oven from Shoprite, a hand mixer, and a small fridge. I have a few baking pans.”
The talented baker says electricity is another challenge
The go-getter baker notes that power outages, which are common in South Africa, greatly affect her business and the success thereof:
“I work in a very small kitchen and loadshedding heavily impacts me.”
However, despite the various obstacles the young woman faces, she will never stop being perseverant, and notes that the previous features by Briefly News have motivated her further:
“I have new customers. They’re making quotations.”
Briefly News cannot wait to see how Nondumiso grows with her enterprise and all the heights she’ll reach.
