Container Works Africa Ltd Managing Director Kelvin Kyellenge. [David Njaaga, Standard]
In 2012, Kelvin Kyellenge grew tired of his bank job. For six years, he had led a miserable financial life living from pay cheque to pay cheque; hand to mouth; no savings; no assets acquired. It was a difficult job. A chance meeting one day with one of his bank customers opened his eyes to opportunities that lay in the container business.

Kelvin shares his business journey with Hustle.
