Welcome to Your New Hustle
Every weekend across Kenya, thousands of weddings, funerals, birthday parties, corner-stone laying ceremonies, and corporate events take place. Every single one of them needs chairs, tents, tables, plates, cups, cutlery, cooking pots, serving dishes, and decor items.
Most people don't own these items - they rent them. That's where you come in.
Why This Business Works in Kenya
- Low barrier to entry: You can start small with as little as KSh 20,000-50,000
- Recurring demand: Events happen every weekend, all year round
- High repeat customers: Event planners, church groups, and families become regulars
- Scalable: Start with utensils, add tents and chairs, then vehicles for delivery
- Cash business: Most payments are upfront via M-Pesa

A Quick Success Story
Many small rental businesses in towns like Thika, Nakuru, and Kisumu started with just 100 plastic chairs and 2 tents. Within a year, some have grown to serve 5-10 events every weekend, earning KSh 30,000-100,000 in profit monthly.
