About Me

My name is Sharon Kandie, I have been a full time student at Egerton university for the last three years pursuing a degree course in commerce insurance and risk management option and did my final exams on august 2014, am currently waiting to graduate on December this year.
In a family of two I am the last born with both my mum who was a single mother and brother are no more. I live with my grandmother who is a peasant and the little money she gets she uses it for her medication and upkeep.
I am a salesperson who sells green fuel tabs which are manufactured by green fuel technologies in USA. The tablets allow the combustion chambers and engine to run efficiently with less friction and heat emission thus lowering fuel combustion. The heat is lowered from 600 degree Celsius to 200 degree Celsius.
I joined the business in order to be independent and support my grandmother who in her days cannot do much workload.
When am free I do cook, visit the sick and have fellowship with other believers sharing the message of the cross and the blood of Jesus Christ that the world may know that He is coming again.

My Business

In relation to my business, I am employed as a salesperson. I sell green fuel tabs which do not harm the engine and increases car acceleration.
My customers prefer my business because it saves their money, lowers harmful exhaust emission, reduces engine maintenance costs, it gives greater engine performance, easy to use by just dropping one tablet in the gas tank for diesel and gasoline engine. It does reduces the cases of taking cars to garage for engine replacement and removal of carbon thus increasing engine and oil life and does not void engine warranty.
I purchase one packet of green fuel tablet at $ 27 and I make a profit of $ 5 in a day and on a weekly basis I make around $ 30. The business is profitable and is on high demand in the market. Despite competition my business does well because the tablets are cheaper and gives the best results to my customers as compared to my competitors.
My business is very profitable, in that I buy the product at a wholesale price and sales it at a retail price. The more the inventory I purchase the more the discount I receive. a loan would enable me to buy more stock at a better price and avoid problems resulting from products being out of stock.
I look forward to your humble support thanks.

Project Proposal

With the fund I will purchase additional agrochemical farm inputs for the business. Availability of this products at the shop will lead to increased sales and good customer service.
My desire is for this business to have enough stock especially now that the prices for inputs have gone high and we end up buying less inputs as compared to previous months. The fund will close that gap of stock restock shortages.
Your funding will be of great support.
Am always greatful for zidisha team.

    With the money I received I managed to buy animal feeds, fertilizer and agrochemical products.
    Since then my sales have increased and even doubled than the previous months.
    I no longer struggle with having to rush and get goods for customers from other shops.
    With the profits I made this month have been able to stock in other products such as maize storage bags and maize hybrid.
    Thanks to zidisha and group members for your support. No regrets.

    I will have enough stock that's means my customers will not have to wait as I go picking the products from other shop. It will as well increase my sales volume and customer service satisfaction.
