About Me

My names are Robert Hope Okwirry and i am an aquaculture farmer in Bondo, Siaya county. I am a husband and father to two children. I reside in Nairobi Kenya but occasionally travel at least every fortnight to Nyanza to check up on my fish project. I am 51 years of age and hence ventured into a stress free project which i must say doesn't have much trouble to handle, actually i have become very passionate about the business. My fish farming business supply me with fresh tilapia which i in turn sell to the local market either raw or deep fried and helps to sustain a good living from it.

My Business

I specialize in aquaculture and cage tilapia fish farming in Lake Victoria. I sell my caged organic tilapia for commercial purposes and looking to expand my business by increasing stock capacity hence buying more fish food wish would help archive high quality fish. I also would like to purchase better cooler boxes and storage box packaging for ease of transportation of product to my clients, all this would greatly improve my innovation and boost my business positively.

Project Proposal

Abitu Fresh Fish is a small and medium size enterprise based in Bondo Lake Victoria. I would like to purchase fish feed for my aquaculture business, i cage fish in Lake Victoria for resale and need to purchase quality fish feed so as to enhance the quality of fish harvested for sale. The fish i keep is organically reared and the quality of fish feed provided to them is key to attain the required quality hence boosts sales. One bag of fish feed now costs Ksh 2800 and with your help i can add on the loan and get at least two bags.
