Machakos is one of the fastest growing town, thanks to devolution. In future, it will become the economic hub of eastern and Nairobi regions. Before everything sky rocket, it’s wise to start business in the town, and based on the feasibility studies at the town, here are the best businesses to conduct in Machakos.
Selling water
Machakos is known for having limited supply of water. If you have Ksh 2.5 million, you can buy land where you dig boreholes to harvest water. Then sell to locals.
Alternatively, you can start supplying clean water with trucks. This business requires a single truck and Ksh 150,000
Constructing guest houses
This is a noble idea for anyone with a vision.
So many visitors troop to Machakos each day, making the demand of guest houses to go high.
Guest house business will do extremely well at the town.
Hardware
Since the town is still developing, we found out that construction materials are on demand. A hardware shop is ideal business in Machakos.
Bodaboda spare parts business
This is another good business you can set up in Machakos town and realize huge returns. You only need Ksh400,000-Ksh700,000 to set up motorcycle spare parts business.
Fast Food Restaurant
Fast food restaurant is not only among the best businesses in Machakos, but also very profitable.
Just set aside Ksh 250,000-Ksh400,000 for the business, and you will smile all the way to the bank.
Grocery
A grocery is where you can sell vegetables and fruits sourced from Kajiado, Nairobi, Kiambu or Kisii.
There is a deficit of such shops in Machakos, making it easy to thrive if you set it up as soon as today.
There are also many other businesses you can set up at the town but competition will be stiff.
