In our sub-county, there are two activities done everyday. These are farming and business. Most people are farmers. They grow different crops and rear chicken, goats, cattle. Men and women are both involved in the business. They sell different items including foodstuffs and animal products from their farms.

Mr. Amooti is among the well known businessmen in the area. He has the biggest shop. In his shop, there is a variety of items. Some are weighed in kilogrammes like sugar, maize flour, rice, beans and groundnuts. Others are packed in bottles, tins or packets like juice, soda, water, shoe polish, salt and baking flour.

If anyone needed paraffin or cooking oil, these would be measured in litres. They are also measured in small quantities as a person may require. There is hardly anything a person may want for home use that is not in Mr. Amooti’s shop.

In order to serve his many customers well, Mr. Amooti has employed some workers to help him. They all serve with a smile. More so, items in his shop are cheaper compared to those from other shops. When children go to buy from his shop, he sometimes gives them sweets. It is a reward for choosing to buy from his shop.
