I have a strong passion to do business and become one of the greatest businessmen in the county of Nakuru. last year i diversified my business and established a poultry keeping type of business

My Business

I am operating a poultry business where I have 140 layers that have reached the rearing stage. These layers are of exotic breeds and the eggs have a high demand since the market is too wide in Nakuru town. Most of the poultry keepers stopped rearing layers because of high prices of chicken feeds and others shifted to the quail business. I took this one as a big business opportunity. I bought a grinding machine and a mixer this has enabled me to make my own feeds at a very cheap cost. This has enabled me to produce eggs at a very low cost and a very high profit margin. Am intending to buy 200more layers once I get funded and this will enable me supply more eggs and meet the needs of my customers. I also get additional revenue from the sale of surplus chick feeds. In a week I sell approximately 1000 eggs minus broken eggs and sell at wholesale price of kes 11 this translates to Kes 11,000 and incur a weekly cost of Kes 4,000 and get approximately Kes 7,000 as profit per week.

Loan Proposal

Am very grateful to zidisha team, my dear lenders and my volunteer mentor Mr. Sammy Njuguna, for the very much assistance they have given me. The first loan I got I acquired a much bigger room and also hired a labour force which has brought increased sales and also I have identified a new business idea of selling ladies shoes whose market is increasing with a new establishment of a new learning institution that has been opened in my area. If I get funded I will purchase a bundle of new shoes in the fashion.
