00:00 I've been an entrepreneur since I was 9 years old.

00:03 At that age, during the holidays,

00:06 we would help my mom sell the little things,

00:08 the plate on her head.

00:09 It followed us.

00:10 The millenial, she lives her life at home.

00:20 I recognize that it wasn't easy.

00:23 Because the passion is there,

00:24 but the means were limited.

00:26 What I did, I went to see my little sister.

00:30 I borrowed some money from her

00:32 to add to what I was doing,

00:34 to be able to launch myself.

00:35 Because I started with the roasted peanuts at home.

00:39 Nowadays, I can say that there has been an evolution.

00:43 Because from the house,

00:45 we found it on a site.

00:47 We transform local products,

00:48 mainly peanuts,

00:50 into peanut paste,

00:51 peanut butter,

00:52 into roasted peanuts.
