About Me

I was born in Kenya. Challenges were never in doubt and for that reason having a meal was a luxury, education a dream but despite abject poverty, my resolve, humility and sheer industry enabled me acquire knowledge in finance. My dream was to one day run a successful agri - business company. At times i pinch myself how far have made it. I now pride in farming, charity work and motivational talk to youth's. My hobby is tending to my sheep, playing with my dog Shiky and garden work in my small farm.

My Business

My business deals with sales of seeds, fertilizer, animals feeds and medicine, insecticides etc. I started this business because of abject poverty in my village. People lack knowledge and skills on farming methods and access to products. I enjoy service to others because am using my skills to educate my village on ways of improving productivity through farming to eradicate poverty and hunger. My revenues are usually ksh 50,000 monthly and higher on planting seasons with 25% profit. Being a capital intensive business am always reinvesting my profits. Part of my profits go to training of poor kids on farming techniques. I desire to grow, i long to see others become independent and how i wish you kindly support me in this journey

Loan Proposal

The main aim for acquiring this loan is to enable me purchase inventory for my business and as a result grow and take my business to the next level. The main inventory will be agricultural chemicals, supplement and farm care products. This will enable me meet my customers needs and demands as a result grow my business to the next level. Grateful for your endless support.
