Entrepreneur

About Me

Am the third born in a family of five. I grew up in a humble background with mum being the sole breadwinner.
I school at Kampi ya Moto Primary school emerged the best pupil with 382/500 marks and joined AIC Morop Girls. Though my childhood was difficult I always worked hard in school and scored the best grades in class, this earned me a sponsorship from Grandmothers Education Fund Africa.
After high school I volunteered in the above organization for a year and was later employed as a field officer, I saved and started a cyber cafe business that has enabled me pay my college fees throughout college.
When am not working I enjoy swimming and mending torn clothes for family, neigbours and friends who cannot afford taking them to a tailor.

My Business

My business is a cyber cafe that offers internet services, typing and printing, photocopy, binding of books and lamination. We also sell stationery such as pens, notebooks, envelopes, printing papers and soft drinks such as mineral water and soda.
I run it myself and have one employee to assist me. I choose this type of business because I have experience in working with computer applications as well as fast typing skills. It is also a good source of income and I have been able to pay my college fee and support my family from the profits I make.
On average the business generates about Kshs. 1000. The daily expenses are about Ksh. 400 a day. It has high potential of growing if more computers and new machines such as a bigger more efficient photocopier can be availed.
To attract and retain customers we provide free WI-FI services to our customers who come to enjoy soft drinks in the cyber cafe. I also offer discounts as incentives to my loyal customers.

Loan Proposal

I will use to loan to buy a new epson printer for my cyber.
The actual cost of the printer is ksh 18000. I will add up the amount received from the loan to other savings so that it will be enough to buy the new machine.
The machine is an efficient colour printer and will enable me to provide my customers vibrant coloured pages at a good profit. It is easy and affordable to maintain it therefore more returns.
On average it will give an additional income of kshs. 250 a day which will enable me pay the loan with ease and have extra money to reinvest in the business.

Thanks zidisha team. You have been a crucial support for my business growth.
