In similar YEN.com.gh reports, Peter Nyathi is an entrepreneur that has taken his success to new heights simply by believing in his hopes and dreams. Nyathi started out as a farmer on another man's mushroom farm but soon made the decision to take the leap and start his very own mushroom farm.
The brave decision changed Peter's life completely as he now makes mushroom deliveries to over 350 Shoprite Checkers branches around South Africa and this is a very big win.
It wasn't as easy as it sounds, however, because even though Peter has a BSc Honours in Agricultural Economics and years of experience in the industry, he struggled to secure funding for his dream of owning his own farm - but closing the Shoprite deal opened all the right doors.
