I used to operate a POS business at RIVTAF, Golf Estate, Port Harcourt, and I wanted to upgrade and own a fully-stocked supermarket. I approached PIND and took part in the Business Linkage Program. I connected with business service providers (BSPs) who advised me on how to set up a supermarket, including staff recruitment. Through the BSPs, I met vendors who supplied me with various items. I also met a BSP, who provided all the CCTV purchase/installations and the systems hardware installation.
They delivered and installed the accounting software for the supermarket sales/inventory management activity. They helped manage all these processes, which resulted in an increased client base and business stability. I am now comfortably running my business with minimal support. We serve the Golf Estate residents in Port Harcourt and its environs and offer home delivery service. My income has increased by over 65% and continues to grow.
