About Me

MY NAME IS ESTHER NYAMEMA,OF AGE 29YEARS.I GREW UP IN KISUMU. I COME FROM MIXED FARMING COMMUNITY. I WENT TO SCHOOL IN THE SAME PLACE; LIFE WAS NEVER EASY WITH A LOT OF CHALLENGES DUE TO HIGH POVERTY LEVELS. I WAS ABLE TO COMPLETE MY O-LEVEL EDUCATION AND LATER ON MOVED TO NAIROBI FOR A BETTER LIVING SINCE I COULD NOT JOIN ANY COLLEGE DUE TO FINANCIAL CONSTRAINTS.I WAS ABLE TO DO MENIAL JOBS UNTIL MY UNCLE OPENED AN MPESA SHOP FOR ME BECAUSE I HAD A CHILD AND LIFE WAS TOUGH.TODAY I LIVE IN ONGATA RONGAI WHERE I OPERATE A MOBILE TRANSFER SHOP (SAFARICOM MPESA SHOP). I HOPE TO EXPAND THE BUSINESS TO BE ABLE TO DO LARGER TRANSACTIONS AND CONTRIBUTE TO SUSTAINABILITY OF MY FAMILY.
MY BUSINESS HAS BEEN IN OPERATION FOR THREE YEARS AND I HAVE BEEN ABLE TO GET MY DAILY BREAD FROM. THE FACT THAT I HAVE LASTED THIS FAR AND THAT THE BUSINESS SHOWS GREAT SIGNS OF GROWTH PROVES THAT I AM CAPABLE OF DOING BETTER.

My Business

I OPERATE A MOBILE MONEY AND CALLING CARDS SHOP. WE TRANSFER MONEY VIA PHONES AND SELL CALLING CARDS AND ACCESSORIES AS WELL. I STARTED THE BUSINESS ABOUT THREE YEARS AGO TO PROVIDE FOR MYSELF AND MY SON. THE BIGGEST CHALLENGE TO MY BUSINESS IS HAVING ENOUGH MONEY TO TRANSFER WHAT WE CALL FLOAT. I NEED ENOUGH MONEY IN MY ACCOUNT TO TRANSFER AMOUNTS TO OTHER PEOPLE. I CURRENTLY HAVE A SMALL AMOUNT IN MY ACCOUNT WHICH LIMITS HOW MUCH I CAN TRANSACT ON BEHALF OF MY CLIENTS. I PLAN TO INCREASE MY FLOAT TO ATTRACT MORE CLIENTS AND SELL MORE CARDS.
THE BUSINESS PROVIDES FOR ME AND THAT MAKES ME PROUD. I ALSO SEE THE POTENTIAL OF GROWTH AND EXPANSION.
