how we started our lime fruit business

 My husband and i started our lime fruit business in 2011 after we bought 10 acres of land in Air Karah, Lenggong, Perak, Malaysia. We plan to plant rubber tree on this land, but during the inspection on the site, we were quite surprise to find out that our land has been cultivated with over 200 lime trees. At first, we do not know what to do with their fruit, one day my hubby brought a couple of sack to the market and sell it to the vegetable wholesaler, surprisingly he came back with RM600 (USD200). Now we produce around 1 to 2 metric tan of lime fruits a month. Enough to pay my Indonesian worker's salary and my husband 4x4 Toyota Hilux
