We have launched 37 schools in Kenya; we will double in size in the next 6 months, and plan to rapidly scale the company to serve more than 1 million students across the continent.

About this position

SELF MADE TOMATO MILLIONARE

A jobless man applied for the position of "Office Boy" at Fina Bank.

The HR Manager interviewed him, and then watched him cleaning the floor as a test.

"You are employed" he said. "Give me your e-mail address and I'll send you the application to fill in, as well as the date when you may start".
The man replied "But I don't have a computer, neither an email."
"I'm sorry", said the HR Manager, "If you don't have an email, that means you do not exist. And who doesn't exist, cannot have the job."
The man left with no hope at all. He didn't know what to do, with only Kshs.100/= in his pocket. He then decided to go to the supermarket and buy a 100 Kg tomato crate. He then sold the tomatoes in a door to door round, and in less than two hours, he succeeded to double his capital. He repeated the operation three times, and returned home with Kshs. 600/=.
The man realized that he can survive by this way, and started to go everyday earlier, and return late. Thus, his money doubled or tripled everyday.
Shortly, he bought a cart, then a truck, and then he had his own fleet of delivery vehicles. 5 years later, the man is one of the biggest food retailers in the Country...
He started to plan his family's future, and decided to have a life insurance. He called an Insurance Broker, and chose a protection plan. When the conversation was concluded, the Broker asked him his email.
