About Me
Am Beth Nyambura Ndungu, was born in Muranga county, Kariuki sublimation. Am the fourth born in a family of seven. My parents were not well up and most of their income came from farming which wasn't much promising. Went to Mairungi primary school, and later Kamahuha girl's secondary school. Later I did a certificate in End at St. Claire college in Nairobi. After looking for a job without success for more than 2years. I decided to start a business of selling rice, soft drinks and bottled water.
My Business
I run a business in Tena estate, along Moi drive. The business entails sale of rice, soft drinks and bottled water. I decided to do this business because I felt that people must consume food, and also it fell within my budget. Have been doing this for the past 7 years and the business hasn't been doing very well owing to the expenses involved. These include paying the shop rent, utility bills, other operating costs like local authority permit and also I've to assist my husband with some domestic expenses. I am considering expanding my scope, and stock more cereals, have been doing this for the past 7 years and the business hasn't been doing very well owing to the expenses involved. These include paying the shop rent, utility bills, other operating costs like local authority permit and also I've to assist my husband with some domestic expenses. If the number of customers who ask whether am selling other cereals is anything to go by. I foresee a boost in business and this will relatively increase my profit. Though this requires a bit of more capital, this is the reason am requesting for a loan.
Loan Proposal
Hello lenders, after clearing my previous loan, am glad to post another loan proposal. Am looking forward to acquire a new refrigerator to be storing ready to drink juices and bottled water that aren't products of the Coca-Cola company (they only allow their products in their refrigerators). A big spacious refrigerator in the market now is going for $450, and it will require to be secured with a lockable metal cage, this will cost about $110. This brings it to a total of $560. This is because customers are really demanding these drinks at temperatures lower than room temperature. This will increase sales since we always turn away such customers. This will also increase our profit by about 10%. Am looking forward to working with you guys. Thanks in advance and God bless you all.
