About Me

My names are Kennedy Alusa Id number 8478196. I was born in Kisii town. I am second born and I have 4 siblings. I am a graduate from Egerton University with a degree in livestock breeding. I am the one who educates my siblings as my parents are too old and they don’t have formal employment and all my siblings are in school. My two brothers are in kibirigwi high school. One joined form one this year and the other is in form two. Due to unemployment I decided to utilize my livestock degree by rearing rabbits for commercial purposes and already the business is doing great.

My Business

I had a passion for rearing rabbits since I was a small boy I grew up from the countryside on my grandmother’s farm. Now that I have a degree from that field my business is thriving on excellent measures. I get huge orders from clients both locally and now with a zidisha loan I will expand my business and take internationally as I have been getting large orders especially to Ghana but due to my limited funds I cannot manage it. The challenges in this business are animal diseases which attack the rabbits but once I get a loan I will be able to vaccinate the rabbits and keep them out of danger. I am above my competition because my customers trust my products quality and also I deliver on time without failure not forgetting the good relationship I have with them. I sell 1kg of rabbit meat at ksh870 and its hide(used for leather) at ksh350 for a fully grown rabbit making about ksh38,000 per month and a incurring a cost of ksh8,000 per month.

Loan Proposal

first i would like to thank you for your previous loans that i paid with 100% on time repayment and enabled me to invite my friends and also supporting my passion for rearing rabbits since I was a small boy where i grew up from the countryside on my grandmother’s farm. Now that I have a degree from agricultural field my business is thriving on excellent measures. from previous loans i improved my rabbit rearing techniques thus now I am getting huge orders from clients both locally and now with a bigger zidisha loan I will expand my business and take it international as I have been getting large orders especially to Ghana and now Uganda but due to my limited funds I cannot manage it. I am above my competition because my customers trust my products quality and also I deliver on time without failure not forgetting the good relationship I have with them. I sell 1kg of rabbit meat at $10 and its hide(used for leather) at $5 for a fully grown rabbit making about $440 per month and a incurring a cost of $79 per month. this time i will use $68 to build a larger house as the rabbits have tremendously increased.

    Dear Lenders,
    I have just sent out a message to Kennedy reminding him to commence repaying the loan. It was through trust that you gave him the laon and he should reciprocate in repaying so that other borrowers too can get something for their loans.

    Regards,
    Paul

    Dear Lenders,
    I tried contacting Kennedy today but his phone was off, probably because it was Sunday. I will try to reach him in the course of the weeks and keep you posted about his loan repayment.

    Thanks.
    Paul

      Paul,
      Do you have any further information about Kennedy's circumstances? It is disappointing to see zero repayments and no contact from him at all since the loan was disbursed more than a month ago.

    Hello! I was wondering what types of rabbits you use. My cousins and I used to breed them for livestock shows and as pets.
