Producing something better than being a salesperson

When we think of entrepreneurship in Kenya, the first thing that comes to mind is buying something cheap and selling it at a higher price.

It could be from Eastleigh, Nairobi to rural areas or other parts of the city. Economists have a wider definition of entrepreneurship, seen more as a factor of production, where you optimally combine the other factors (land, labour and capital) to produce something, either for use at home or for sale at a profit.
