FTK attended a business exhibition,
which included business ideas competition among entrepreneurial groups around
Kilimanjaro region. 17 groups from different parts of Kilimanjaro participated
in the competition. Lower Moshi represented by our 5 groups (4 from Mikocheni
and 1 from TPC).
2nd and 3rd winner were groups
from Maasaini/Mikocheni and TPC who came up with idea of making
cultural staffs by using their traditional skills, selling essentials, making
wallets, tablemats by using banana trees, and cultural staffs by using updated
calendars.
Also the 4th, 5th and the 6th
winner came from Mikocheni with their ideas of fishing activities, renting of
tents and chairs on events like wedding and buying and selling fish around the
village respectively. The aim was not only to prepare them for the
competition but also to make sure that they change their economic status from
what they have just started, so we are going to monitor their business and help
them to find the market for their products.
