Goal-driven Nthatisi Kelebogile’s business flourishes in the air!

Nthatisi Kelebogile’s bakery business is making a blazing success in the footprint of the Free State, but she has her eye on taking her blossoming Kele’s Best Bakery nationwide.

The 29-year-old goal-driven Kelebogile, is the founder and owner of Kele’s Best Bakery.

Speaking of the establishment of the business, the enthusiastic Ntathisi says her passion for running a bakery business started from a tender age.

Her breakthrough came in 2018, where she made her dream come into reality.

“I established this business in February 2018 when I started to sell biscuits, I am based in Thaba-Nchu Zone 4, in the Free State province where I am currently running this business,” says Nthatisi.

“This was initially just a dream, but I am happy to see how it has grown to date,” she adds.

While setting her foot in this venture, Nthatisi says she started to work with her younger brother, and as the business steered up, she employed over three employees.

“In the beginning, I worked with my younger brother still working together and I now have employed three ladies from Thaba-Nchu,’ she explains.

“It excites me to now contributing to the community in this way and I would like this to grow and I hope to own my own bakery one day,” she details her visionary goals.

Unlike many other, Kele’s best Bakery is a self-funded business, and the aspirant entrepreneur says she used her last penny to start this venture.

She says that she is eager to get funding or investors to help the business to grow.

“I believe that having my own bakery would allow me to employ a larger number of people and that would make a huge impact in the terms of contributing to the economic growth of my community, as well as the province at large,” she says.

Detailing her vision, Nthatisi says she wants to provide the best quality baked products and to deliver with service coming from the goodness of the heart.

“I want see my business growing and making breaking grounds in the bakery industry and owning the biggest bakery,” says Nthatisi.

Her key motto in life is to inspire and to enhance economic growth in her community.

“I want to implement an entrepreneurial base that inspires young individuals to believe that their dreams and aspirations are valid, so they may follow them,” she said.

Nthatisi says she’s targeting milestones in her life as she’s currently awaiting a certificate of acceptability from the department of Health, to ensure her products are safe to be consumed and meet the standard requirements.

“I would also like to propose for retail stores to assist me in expanding my products by marketing them, I am willing to do this by baking for these stores,” said Nthatisi.

“Additionally, I would also like to request support from the big companies that will provide me with fridges, Ovens and Equipment,” pleaded Nthatisi.

Nthatisi says she is keen on offering baking services to funeral parlors in her local areas.

“My idea is for my product to become a part of the package. For instance, I believe my baked products could
be an additional component to the basic funeral services,” she says.
