About Me

I am Peter Ekiru Rukwa a hard working Kenyan Married Man. I hold national ID No 28637065. I come from Nakuru County Kenya.

I gree up as the 7th born and the last born in our Christian family with so many challenges as a Turkana boy. My father being a farmer we had limited time to study and therefore hardwork is the only choice we had.

I sat for my KCSE back in the year 2011 at a school called Wei high school in Subukia, Nakuru County. After high school i pursued various courses namely: Computer courses at GTI in Nakuru town, Driving Licence with Budget Driving School and i also did my Diploma in Gym Instructor Body Building Fitness Federation Nairobi (MET COURSE).

I am a father of two, Ruby and Ethan. Ruby want to be an engineer when she grows up and my son just turned 1 year last week.

My Business

I am a professional gym instructor and also a Business man. My business include selling and re-filling of cooking gas. This loan will help me add stock to my gas business and gradually grow to become my own self employed person.

My aim and goal is to see my Gas business grow to a big company and by God's Grace to eventually become one of the biggest and busiest Gas supplier within and out of Nakuru county.

Gas is on demand because whether the economy is good or bad people must eat every day. Majority use gas for its convenience, affordability and hygiene.

On a good day i am able to sell 7 cylinders and on a poor day i am able to sell 1 or non. How ever i sell a an average 20 cylinders in a week.

Loan Proposal

Planning to add more stock in my gas business.which will enable my business to move to the next level.
Am planning also to expand and open another shop soon...

    At some point in the future, you can expand to let others sell your cooking gas cylinders for a part of the profits. That way you are only invested in the inventory and allowing others to work for you for earnings and not a salary. If they sell a lot, you both profit!

    Hello Peter,
