My names are Michael Kangethe Kariuki I am 30 years old from Kenya. I am married and blessed with one child who is in class 1. I live in Makongeni estate approximately 5 km east of Thika town. After completing high school I started working as a casual laborer at building and constructions. During my working I managed to save in order to get capital to start a small business. After a couple of years of saving I managed to start a small business of buying and selling mobile phones accessories, the business I am doing up to date. I have always wanted to expand my business but I have been experiencing limitations due to lack of enough capital, therefore if I can find capital from other sources I can realize my business dream.
From my humble savings I managed to start a small business of buying and selling mobile phones accessories in Thika town. I source these products in bulk from suppliers at a lower price which enables me sell them at a good price and hence increase my sale and profit margin too. I have used the small profit I get from the sales to extend a mobile money transfer service (Mpesa Agent), buying mobile phones and airtime which has boosted my business and have drawn many customers. I will appreciate you, if you can assist me by lending me money so that I can expand my business further and also employ another person.
Thank you for granting me previous loan that raise my profit margin tremendously,the demand for mobile phones has increased that making these business more competitive, i want to venture in sale of affordable smart phones to cater for middle income earners and some of these phones are cheap that everybody can afford.
There ready market for these phones especially now we are heading to festive seasons where many people in my region buy new phones.your financial support will help me to achieve my goal.
