About Me

Am a Kenyan aged 40years. Married and living in karuri kiambu. Am a first born in my family and brought up in a Christian foundation. Had a privilege of attending primary and secondary schools. Had also managed to further my studies as I have a diploma in early childhood development education. Am a proud mother of two beautiful daughters both in secondary (Future Doctor and Lawyer)

My Business

I run a green grocery offerings fresh vegetables to the community. Am able to sustain my family, pay school fees and service any loan with the profit I make. Before I started my business I had faced challenges especially financial challenges. I approached a good friend who chipped in and offered a soft loan which I used to open and run it. At first it didn't pick immediately but I was patient enough and also my friend was patient with me. After sometime it picked and I managed to pay the loan and was left with enough money to keep running my business.

Loan Proposal

I will buy goods like potatoes, peas, carrots, onions, tomatoes and cabbages at wholesale price then sell them at retail price.

    Wish to that my lenders for the loan I have received. With the amount I bought stock for my kiosk at wholesale price then sell them at retail price. I bought potatoes, peas, tomatoes, onions and carrots. From the sale will be able to gain profit which will help me pay my loan, buy more stock and also support my family

    Wish to thank my previous loan lenders for their support. With the loaned amount I was able to pay the school fees balance and also boosted my stock which enabled me to earn enough money to repay my loan and also sustain my family

    I wish to thanks my lenders for the loan they offered to me. It was of great help as it ensured my daughter was at school throughout the term. She wasn't sent home to collect school balance thus enabling her to have a smooth conducive learning moment. Thanks soo much and God bless you.

    The last loan I received was really helpful as it helped cleared my daughter's school fees. She had a smooth time learning in school as she wasn't sent back home to get the balance
