How AppleKid Journey Started
The founder was an Apple user and one day his iPhone appears to be not working and he wanted to get it repaired. A local dealer estimated a high repair cost with the statement that it would be repaired from an over-cease Apple store and he will manage for it.

The Apple Kid has served over 10,000 satisfied customers inclusive of multinational corporate clients like Nestle, and Adidas.

Economics superstar tutor a well-recognised figure even outside of tutoring industry with steady major media coverage and entry into Singapore Book of Records
24 September 2023 − Anthony Fok is no longer the best kept secret of A-Level Economics top scorers. Other than earning a slew of awards for JCEconomics.com, the A-Level Economics tuition centre he founded in 2012, the man has been featured or quoted in most of the major local newspapers − including The Straits Times, TODAY and the front page headlines of The Sunday Times − magazines and radio shows. Even those who are not A-Level exam sitters (or their parents) are likely to be familiar with Fok, since he has been entered into the Singapore Book of Records as the Highest Earning Economics Tutor and author of the most number of Economics guidebooks, 18 including the Ten Year Series (TYS) for GCE A-Level H1 and H2 Economics.
It all started with making the headlines on The Sunday Times as one of Singapore’s five most sought-after “super tutors” in 2008, when he was just 25. Even then, he was already known for his ability “to deliver results”, with “parents try(ing) all means to put their children in his class.” Fok had by then left his well-paying job as tax consultant at one of the Big Four audit firms, to heed his calling for teaching. He went on to teach in MOE schools, but found that tutoring privately enabled him to reach out to students from a wider range of backgrounds. So he quit MOE, went on to open JCEconomics.com in 2012, to pursue a PhD in Education.
He was featured in the Invest section of the same newspaper again last year for his relatively unusual, yet inspiring career arc, from number cruncher to super tutor to founder of hugely successful one-man tuition business to, soon, doctorate holder; interviewed in TODAY newspaper for his views on the local tuition scene and how tuition classes complement the school curriculum; and featured in The Straits Times in February 2015 for his high income in 2014 and response to the recent income tax hike. He has also been featured on Chinese newspaper Friday Weekly (now renamed zbCOMMA) as “an inspirational and dedicated teacher”.
Even when he is not the subject of a feature, he has been quoted in pieces on national exams and education, such as The Straits Times’ Home section headlining article in February 2015 on students’ tendency to memorise answers for exams. His take is that “in recent years, exam questions tend not to be repeated. There is no way of assuring a passing grade even if a student memorises all the questions and answers.” This is why students at JCEconomics.com are taught by linking economic theories to real-world scenarios using newspaper and magazine articles.
Fok has also appeared on Official938LIVE radio’s ‘Money and Sense’ segment for his advice on money and economics, as well as in magazines including the Singapore Business Review, Popular, Teenage, Singapore’s Child and Today’s Parents.
For all that, Fok is not letting fame get to his head. He still believes in good, old-fashioned hard work: “When students achieve distinctions, I don’t take all the credit… I am not a miracle worker. Achieving distinctions is never a given. I openly share my formula to success – be genuinely passionate about teaching and put in your 100% effort in helping your students improve. Don’t over-promise and under-deliver. Hard work, hard work and hard work.”
About JCEconomics.com
A top A-Level Economics tuition centre in Singapore, JCEconomics.com was created by Mr Anthony Fok, who was featured in the Sunday Times as one of Singapore’s most popular tutors. Mr Anthony Fok has earned this title through a track record of effecting significant improvements in many of his ex-students’ grades in Economics. Mr Anthony Fok started off his teaching career as an MOE school teacher and is applying his teaching experience as the principal tutor at JCEconomics.com. He is the author of Ten Year Series H1 Economics and Ten Year Series H2 Economics, both annual compilations of the GCE A-level Economics papers from previous years, as well as guide books on the subject.
In the vast expanse of Pakistan’s manufacturing sector, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) serve as the cornerstone of economic progress. These enterprises currently foster 16% of employment opportunities and contribute significantly to approximately 35% of the GDP. Furthermore, they also hold the potential to catalyze growth across various industries.
This comprehensive article delves into the intricate world of SME manufacturers in Pakistan, exploring their vital contributions to employment and the GDP, the latent potential within industries like textile, polymer, and construction, as well as the obstacles that hinder them from realizing their full capabilities.
In this exploration, we delve into the inception and transformative impact of B2B sourcing platforms, akin to innovative solutions like Zaraye, on the manufacturing landscape. These platforms offer a novel means of empowering SMEs while bridging the divide between manufacturers and suppliers.
Manufacturing Sector Contribution Towards Employment and GDP of Pakistan
Small and medium-sized manufacturing enterprises in Pakistan play a crucial role in the country’s economy, impacting employment and GDP. These businesses are important in tackling unemployment by providing jobs to skilled workers, technicians, and support staff. According to the Board of Investment of Pakistan, statistics show that the textile industry alone employs 40% of the workforce in the industrial sector, while the iron and steel industry employs a substantial 1.5 million people.
SME manufacturers have a significant impact on Pakistan’s GDP beyond employment. They are present in various industries such as textiles, polymers, and construction, which collectively contribute to the country’s economic output. Furthermore, SMEs play a crucial role in stabilizing Pakistan’s economy by exporting their products. For example, the textile industry alone accounts for 60% of the country’s exports, while the iron and steel industry contributes 3% to its GDP. These figures emphasize the urgent need to support and nurture SMEs as a fundamental pillar for sustaining economic health and robust growth in Pakistan. By continuing to empower and invest in SMEs, Pakistan can unlock its potential to create more employment opportunities and drive economic prosperity across the nation.
Industry Potential: Textile, Polymer, and Construction
The potential within Pakistan’s manufacturing sphere is most apparent in industries like textile, polymer, and construction. The textile industry, a global powerhouse, holds a central position in the nation’s export landscape. The production of premium fabrics, garments, and home textiles presents SME manufacturers with a global platform for recognition. Similarly, the polymer industry encompasses a spectrum from plastics to packaging, offering an array of opportunities for innovative solutions. The polymer industry in Pakistan shows immense potential, with projections indicating that the country’s plastic imports are poised to surge to an impressive $3 billion by 2026. This growth has been consistently robust, with a year-on-year Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 2.5% since 2021, underlining the sector’s promising prospects.
The thriving construction sector further drives demand for construction materials and services.
Challenges to Reach Full Potential in the Manufacturing Industry
SME manufacturers grapple with several obstacles, including limited resources, restricted access to favorable pricing and reliable suppliers, and market disparities that impede their competitiveness. These challenges often compromise their operational efficiency and growth potential.
Meanwhile, Pakistan’s textile industry faces its own set of hurdles, such as fluctuations in energy prices and other economic factors, which further complicate the landscape. Despite these challenges, export trends in various textile products paint a mixed picture: cotton cloth exports declined by 22.6% to $140.9 million, knitwear exports dropped 16.1% to $364.5 million, bedwear exports decreased by 14.6% to $217 million, readymade garments fell 9.8% to $274.7 million, and towels dipped 2.9% to $72.8 million.
However, there is a notable silver lining in the textile industry, with cotton yarn exports surging by 35.96% to $97 million compared to July 2022 exports. These fluctuations and challenges underscore the dynamic nature of Pakistan’s textile sector in the face of economic and market conditions, necessitating resilience and adaptability
The Emergence of B2B Sourcing Platform: Empowering Manufacturing Industry
As a response to these challenges, B2B sourcing platforms have emerged as transformational catalysts in reshaping the manufacturing landscape. The inception of such platforms marks a significant shift in how manufacturers procure materials and services.
By addressing market disparities that hinder access to favorable rates and credit, a B2B sourcing platform such as Zaraye effectively alleviates challenges for countless customers across diverse categories nationwide.
Impact of Zaraye in Bridging Gaps for SME Manufacturers
Zaraye is a B2B sourcing platform that aims to rejuvenate Pakistan’s manufacturing sector. Initially focused on the textile and construction sectors, Zaraye has quickly become a trusted sourcing partner for businesses. Over time, the platform has expanded its offerings to include a wide range of products such as finished textile goods, iron steel, construction materials, and polymers. This expansion demonstrates a commitment to driving SMEs across various sectors forward.
Since its inception in 2021, Zaraye has experienced impressive growth. With a strong presence in key industrial hubs such as Karachi, Faisalabad, and Gujranwala, the platform has cultivated extensive networks. It boasts 300 partners and suppliers across 20 cities, giving it the ability to effectively address both national and global sourcing needs.
This makes a significant contribution to the overall advancement of the manufacturing sector. Zaraye plays a pivotal role in mitigating market disparities that hinder access to favorable rates and credit. By doing so, it helps to alleviate challenges faced by numerous customers across various categories nationwide.
Benefits of B2B Sourcing Platforms: Fueling Prosperity
The advantages of leveraging a B2B sourcing platform are multifaceted. Through the strategic utilization of data and technology, these platforms streamline procurement processes, enhance transparency, and foster collaborative ecosystems between manufacturers and suppliers. This leads to substantial cost savings, improved operational efficiency, and an expanded array of options for SMEs.
In a realm where SME manufacturers wield the potential to reshape economic trajectories, B2B sourcing platforms emerge as the driving force behind this transformation. As Pakistan’s manufacturing landscape evolves, SMEs are presented with unprecedented avenues for growth, access to favorable rates, and opportunities for expansive growth. The journey toward harnessing the potential of SMEs through B2B sourcing platforms is well underway, heralding a future where collaboration, innovation, and prosperity reign supreme.
In the ever-evolving landscape of digital media, Felix Arvid Ulf Kjellberg, popularly known as PewDiePie, has managed to carve out a space for himself that is as influential as it is controversial. Born on October 24, 1989, in Gothenburg, Sweden, PewDiePie has become a global phenomenon, leaving an indelible mark on the world of online entertainment.
PewDiePie’s Early Life and Journey to Fame
Felix Kjellberg’s journey to becoming PewDiePie started with a passion for video games and a desire to share his experiences with a wider audience. He enrolled at Chalmers University of Technology to study Industrial Economics and Technology Management but eventually dropped out to pursue his YouTube career full-time. His decision was fueled by his burgeoning YouTube channel, which he launched in 2010.
PewDiePie’s content initially centered around gaming videos, often featuring his commentary and reactions while playing various video games. His energetic and genuine approach resonated with viewers, particularly the younger generation, catapulting him to stardom. He cultivated a unique style of humor and engagement that set him apart from other content creators in the gaming niche.
Rise to YouTube Supremacy
As PewDiePie’s subscriber count began to soar, he expanded his content beyond gaming. He started including vlogs, reaction videos, and meme reviews, diversifying his appeal and demonstrating his versatility as a creator. His catchphrase “Bro Army” became synonymous with his loyal fanbase, and he quickly gained a reputation for pushing the boundaries of online content.
However, PewDiePie’s path wasn’t without controversies. His offhand remarks and edgy humor sometimes led to accusations of insensitivity and even racism. Some advertisers and media outlets distanced themselves from him due to these incidents, prompting discussions about the responsibilities of influencers in the digital age.
Family and Personal Life
PewDiePie’s personal life also came under the spotlight as he formed a relationship with Italian internet personality Marzia Bisognin, known online as CutiePieMarzia. The couple’s love story captured the hearts of many fans, and they tied the knot in 2019. Their wedding was a private affair, reflecting PewDiePie’s attempt to maintain some semblance of privacy amidst his overwhelming public presence.
In late 2020, PewDiePie and Marzia shared the news of expecting their first child, a development that thrilled their supporters. The arrival of their son in early 2021 marked a new chapter in PewDiePie’s life, leading him to reflect on his responsibilities as a father and a role model to millions of fans.
Net Worth and Impact
PewDiePie’s influence extends beyond his YouTube channel. His charismatic persona and massive following have attracted collaborations with various brands and media outlets. These partnerships, coupled with his entrepreneurial ventures, have significantly contributed to his net worth. PewDiePie’s net worth was estimated to be around $40 million. This wealth was accumulated not only through ad revenue and sponsorships but also through merchandise sales, book deals, and other business endeavors.
Beyond financial success, PewDiePie’s impact on the YouTube and online content landscape is immeasurable. He has set trends, inspired countless individuals to start their own channels, and has been both a pioneer and a benchmark for success in the digital age.
Continued Relevance and Future
PewDiePie’s influence remained undiminished, despite occasional controversies and shifts in the online landscape. His fans continue to eagerly anticipate his content, and his evolution as a creator has showcased his ability to adapt to changing audience preferences.
Is PewDiePie A Billionaire?
PewDiePie, whose real name is Felix Kjellberg, is not a billionaire. He is a popular Swedish YouTuber known for his gaming and entertainment content. While he has amassed a significant following and substantial income from his YouTube channel, merchandise, and brand collaborations, reports did not indicate him reaching billionaire status. It’s important to note that financial situations can change, and I recommend checking the most recent and reliable sources for the latest information on PewDiePie’s net worth, as it may have evolved since then. What Are Some Of Pewdiepie’s Other Sources Of Income? Beyond his core YouTube revenue, PewDiePie has explored various avenues to capitalize on his massive following and brand. Here are some of PewDiePie’s other sources of income:
Merchandising: One of the most substantial sources of income for PewDiePie comes from his merchandise sales. He has leveraged his brand and popularity to create a range of products such as clothing, accessories, and other merchandise that resonate with his fan base. These items are often tied to his catchphrases, memes, and iconic moments, allowing his fans to feel more connected to him while also providing him with a lucrative revenue stream.
Book Deals: PewDiePie has authored books that cater to his audience. His book “This Book Loves You” is a collection of humorous aphorisms and advice, tapping into his signature comedic style. These ventures not only provide him with additional revenue but also reinforce his personal brand and give fans another way to engage with his content.
Mobile Apps and Games: Capitalizing on the popularity of mobile gaming, PewDiePie has ventured into the world of app development. His game “PewDiePie’s Tuber Simulator” was a hit, allowing players to simulate the experience of running their own YouTube channel. This venture not only generated income through in-app purchases but also maintained his presence in the gaming community.
Brand Endorsements and Partnerships: With his massive online reach, PewDiePie has become an attractive collaborator for brands seeking to tap into his fan base. He has engaged in various brand endorsements and partnerships, ranging from video game promotions to promoting online services. These partnerships provide him with substantial income while also introducing his followers to products and services he believes in.
Content Platforms: In addition to YouTube, PewDiePie has diversified his content distribution across different platforms. He has joined platforms like DLive and later returned to YouTube, aiming to explore alternative revenue streams such as cryptocurrency and exclusive content offerings for his dedicated fan base.
Sponsorships: PewDiePie has been involved in sponsorships where he promotes products or services in his videos. These sponsorships can range from tech gadgets to online services. While it’s important for such promotions to align with his brand and resonate with his audience, they can generate significant income due to his massive viewership.
Live Streaming: Live Streaming has become a prominent way for content creators to interact with their audience and generate income through donations, subscriptions, and ad revenue. PewDiePie has occasionally engaged in livestreams, particularly during special events or when trying out new content formats.
Media Production: Beyond his online content, PewDiePie has explored broader media production opportunities. He has created and participated in various web series and collaborations with other content creators, which can lead to additional revenue streams and opportunities for cross-promotion.
In conclusion, PewDiePie’s journey from a Swedish gamer to a global internet sensation underscores the power of digital media in shaping modern pop culture. His charisma, humor, and impact on millions of lives make him a defining figure of the YouTube generation, and his legacy will likely continue to influence online content creation for years to come. Please note that some information may have changed since my last update in September 2021.

Success is often portrayed as the ultimate goal in life, something that everyone aspires to achieve. However, behind every success story, there are sacrifices that are made along the way. This article explores the concept of sacrifices of success, shedding light on the various aspects individuals need to consider and the trade-offs they must make in their pursuit of success.
Table of Contents
How Success is Perceived
Success is subjective and can be defined differently by each individual. For some, it might be achieving financial abundance, while for others, it could be making a meaningful impact in their community or excelling in their chosen field.
Identifying Personal Goals and Aspirations
Before embarking on a journey toward success, it is crucial to identify personal goals and aspirations. This involves introspection and understanding what truly matters to you. By clarifying your vision, you can make informed decisions about the sacrifices you are willing to make.
The Importance of Sacrifices for Success
Sacrifices are an inherent part of the success journey. They require individuals to give up certain things in order to attain their desired outcomes. Sacrifices demonstrate commitment, discipline, and dedication to one’s goals.
Sacrificing Time and Leisure
Time is a valuable resource, and achieving success often demands sacrificing leisure activities. Late nights, early mornings, and weekends dedicated to work become the norm. The willingness to invest time and prioritize goals over immediate gratification is a sacrifice successful individuals must make.
Sacrificing Personal Relationships
Achieving success can strain personal relationships. Individuals may need to sacrifice time spent with family and friends to focus on their goals. This can lead to feelings of isolation and loneliness, making it essential to find a balance between personal and professional commitments.
Sacrificing Comfort and Security
Stepping out of one’s comfort zone is often necessary for success. This means embracing uncertainty and taking calculated risks. It may require sacrificing the security of a stable job or financial stability in pursuit of long-term goals.
Sacrificing Health and Well-being
The pursuit of success can take a toll on one’s physical and mental health. Sacrificing sleep, neglecting self-care, and pushing oneself to the limit are common sacrifices made by individuals striving for success. However, it is crucial to prioritize well-being and find ways to maintain a healthy balance.
The Psychological Impact of Sacrifices
Sacrifices can have a profound psychological impact on individuals. They may experience stress, anxiety, and feelings of inadequacy as they juggle multiple responsibilities and navigate the challenges of their chosen path. Building resilience and seeking support are essential for maintaining mental well-being.
The Balance between Sacrifices and Fulfillment
While sacrifices are necessary, it is important to find a balance between the pursuit of success and personal fulfillment. Success should not come at the expense of happiness and overall well-being. It is crucial to assess whether the sacrifices being made align with personal values and aspirations.
Strategies for Managing Sacrifices
Managing sacrifices effectively requires careful planning and self-reflection. Prioritizing goals, setting boundaries, and practicing self-care can help individuals navigate the challenges of sacrificing without compromising their overall well-being.
The Role of Support Systems
Having a strong support system is crucial when making sacrifices for success. Surrounding oneself with understanding and supportive individuals can provide the necessary encouragement, guidance, and reassurance during challenging times.
The Rewards of Sacrifices
Sacrifices can lead to significant rewards and personal growth. Achieving success brings a sense of accomplishment, fulfillment, and self-confidence. The sacrifices made along the way serve as a reminder of the dedication and perseverance required to overcome obstacles and achieve one’s goals.
Conclusion

Key to progress is not in emulating others all the time, but rather experimenting things and finding the dots to connect on your own.
While it’s true that seeking expert consultation could have saved me time, however there was a downside to relying on it for every little issue I encountered. I didn’t want to compromise on my learning journey by constantly seeking answers from my circle.

In short, I was ready to take time and start from the scratch.

“Gig” derived from Fiverr, representing the realm of IT services export marketplace. Initially, I envisioned to provide freelancing-related content to the Pakistani audience, but we kept it as general tech blog – a mistake I realized later on, as back then I felt little stuck on how to created and curate content on pure niche website.
To be honest, the task seemed daunting at first as a beginner. The content formation and managing SEO felt like an uphill battle.
The journey unfolded, brimming with excitement, challenges, and shared victories. I learned, grew, and expanded my horizons, aiming to build something remarkable.

It is important to dig deeper into your inner karma and bring about the very thing that you won’t feel fade off, and so you could persevere when things get challenging.

By having a clear understanding of the unique value you’ll provide, you can ignite a spark of intrigue and captivate your audience from the very beginning.
5. Stay Resilient and Consistent
But let me be honest, dear reader.
The path I tread was not for the faint of heart. It required unwavering consistency, a resilient spirit that refused to surrender, and a willingness to sacrifice sleep for the pursuit of greatness.
Sleepless nights became my comrades as I poured my heart into every keystroke, shaping my thoughts into captivating narratives.
The challenges were plentiful. Thoughts seemed to dance just out of reach, mocking my attempts to capture them on the blank canvas before me.
Distractions lurked at every corner, tempting me with the allure of social media updates, the glow of the television screen, and the never-ending noise of the outside world. But I had a mission, a purpose that burned brighter than any distraction.
Yet long way to go but it feels this is something I was born to do.
6. Learn Search Engine Optimization

Every aspect of SEO became my compass, guiding me towards success. From mastering the art of keywords to crafting comprehensive SEO strategies for websites, I realized the utmost importance of incorporating SEO into content marketing.
7. Embrace the Story Telling Approach
Search engines yearn for content that breathes with personal experience and individual advocacy. In simpler terms, true blogging involves creating content that is tied to your real-life experiences and passions. It’s about sharing your authentic self and crafting stories that resonate with your readers.
8. Constantly Refine Your Dead and Thin Content
Beware of the lurking presence of dead content on your website, consuming valuable space and hosting resources while failing to attract an audience.
As a blogger, it is essential to proactively seek ways to transform this thin, lifeless content into something that ignites inspiration and captivates your viewers.
9. Taking Some Time-off to Rejuvenate Again
In the hustle and bustle of our daily lives, it’s easy to forget the importance of our health and mental well-being. We get so caught up in our responsibilities and obligations that we neglect the one thing that truly matters – ourselves.
But fear not, dear reader, for there is a simple yet profound solution that awaits you. Step away from the chaos, take a deep breath, and immerse yourself in the tranquility of nature. Yes, you heard it right – it’s time to take a break and venture into the enchanting woods.

Women are an indispensable part of our lives and have played an important role in our daily lives. Particularly, the role of Pakistani women in entrepreneurship and Business is undeniable. In education institutions, health centers, corporate offices, etc., you will find women serving the country.
Furthermore, according to a recent report, a woman of today is more capable than a woman of yesterday. There are numerous epitomes of today’s woman’s success, and they have excelled in gaining benefits from economic opportunities.
Today, every entrepreneur and Business narrates the story of women’s dedication. Behind their success, if there was the hard work of men, the true devotion and passion of the women were also involved.
Why are women important?
Not only in businesses and entrepreneurship but also in other profitable and non-profitable organizations, the presence of women plays a vital role. Around the globe, women’s empowerment resulted in positive overcomes. But, where all odds favor women’s supremacy in organizations, some factors push back women. Sometimes, in some societies, they have to face several problems. However, we should not fail to discuss that topic here. However, here are some problems that women may face while participating in entrepreneurship and Business in Pakistan.
Problems for Women in Entrepreneurship and Business
Though the role of Pakistani women in entrepreneurship and Business is worth applause, sometimes they face many problems.
Lack of Family Support
Lack of Capital
Lack of Confidence
Lack of Perfect Institutions
Insufficient Training Programs
Lack of Family Support
Women are the true asset of any organization. But, sometimes, household responsibilities pull them back, and they cannot apply their best role in Business and entrepreneurship in Pakistan. Thousands of women have the talent to surpass in the economic fields, but their cultural and societal norms stop them.
Lack of Capital
Most women in Pakistan can start their businesses, but one of the factors that can stop them from doing so is the lack of capital. As we discussed earlier, families are not supporting them, so they remain stagnant. However, if they are provided with opportunities, they can excel in establishing their own Business. Fortunately, the government of Pakistan has launched different schemes of loans that can help them.
Lack of Confidence
Women have the self-confidence to do something out of the box, but cultural and societal negligence keeps them suppressed. As a result, they hesitate to participate in entrepreneurship and Business in Pakistan.
Lack of Perfect Institutions
The women are very approachable toward result-driven tasks; therefore, they are always searching for an institution where they can express their talent and skills. But unfortunately, in Pakistan, we have a very small number of perfect institutions where they can freely express their ideas.
Insufficient Training Programs
Different businesses and entrepreneurs launch various training programs for their employees in different cities in Pakistan. But for certain reasons, women cannot attend the training sessions and remain behind in learning modern skills.
Despite all the problems that a woman may face on the way to success, they have achieved a milestone to show themselves in diverse fields of life. Usually, women in Pakistan are found involved in low-income activities. But, now they are more cable of showing their interest in becoming independent. However, women in Pakistan have shown progress in various departments. They are:
IT Enterprises
Event Management
Tourism Industry
Herbal and Health Care
Food, Fruits, and Vegetable Processing
IT Enterprises
Pakistan is not behind any other country in establishing IT Enterprises. In all these entrepreneurship, women are playing their best roles and adding much to the success of organizations.
Event Management
Women have the inborn abilities of management. In Pakistan, Even Management businesses are eagerly searching for women who can rightly provide the services. The role of Pakistani women in Even Management Enterprises is undeniable.
Herbal and Health Care
Though women can play their best role in any organization in Pakistan, their role in Herbal and Health Care enterprises is matchless.
Food, Fruit, and Vegetable Processing
Food, Fruit, and Vegetable Processing enterprises’ success relies on women’s dedication and devotion. They have the best techniques and skills to reserve food for better use. However, Food Processing is a natural ability that women have.
Conclusion
After all the discussions on the role of Pakistani women in entrepreneurship business, they are incomplete without the participation of women.
