At the beginning of her video, the woman (@tiktokjollyjoy) could be seen in the market, amid bunches of bananas.

The second photo had her frying the plantain in a small pot in her compound. She then transitioned from there to having a bigger frying pan and a gas-powered industrial cooker.

At the early stage of the business, she was very much involved in the branding as expected of many one-man businesses.

She grew from there into having an office where she took a CEO role. Many people praised the woman’s tenacity.
