Joshua John who has made sugarcane juice making machine, has urged Malawians to consider innovation as a means of generating revenue.
Joshua who scooped 16 points at Phalombe Secondary School and selected to pursue bachelors in Agribusiness Management at Bunda (LUANAR) but failed to attend due to financial constraints, told ProjectM that he thought of venturing into electronics.
‘Having pondered on the matter of recurrent power outages, I decided to make electricity from manual sewing machine. Then after meeting with people I had an idea of how I can continue to help people, so I made a power bank which can power the whole house. Now I have made sugar cane juice maker machine which is trending on social media. My life is depending on the sales I get from my innovation and my products’, Joshua said.
For instance, he offers the power bank for residential use at a price range of 180,000 kwacha to 570,000 kwacha.
Joshua stated that due to the lack of access to various materials, he relies on utilizing materials that are locally available in Malawi.
He has revealed his intention to establish a big manufacturing company for the purpose of providing Malawians with the benefits of his innovative products.
