About Me

I am businessman, I own a cyber cafe and also supply internet within my region. I have also actively ventured into agriculture and poultry farming. I am committed to empowering my fellow youths towards economic independence and self actualization through self-employment ventures by sharing viable business ventures and ideas and working towards its implementation. I subcontract various freelancing services including online article writing but after relocating to my rural town in Bungoma I have ventured more on farming and poultry.

My Business

I have been able to venture full-time on agriculture after testing the fruits of my sweat in this field. I'm currently doing farming on my small piece of land where I plant vegetables for domestic and retailing. I have also ventured into poultry farming rearing both local and improved breeds of chicken known as kuroilers. I currently have 300 birds and am planning to venture into serious large scale poultry farming with a projection of over 1000 birds in a span of one year. I have grown in terms of skills and hands on prowess when it comes to poultry farming and I am more confident than ever that this is what I purpose to do as a career, hobby and interest. I, however, need proper housing structures and equipment for feeding and waltering. I also need an incubator because I want to start selling chicks to other farmers in my area.

Loan Proposal

Hello lenders,

I want to start by thanking you the lenders for the continued support you have offered to me since I enrolled as a member of the Zidisha family back in 2014, from my previous cybercafe project I have managed to get capital for this poultry project thanks to Zidisha. I have a loan proposal for my poultry farming that I recently ventured in. I have 16 kuroiler birds and 10 local breeds; would like to increase the number of my kuroiler birds to 60 for my poultry farming venture to be economically viable. Kuroilers are hybrid birds that have indigenous characteristics but grow much faster and lay more eggs than the local breeds. I will also need to restructure their house to accommodate more birds and to acquire a proper poultry housing designer, buy more feeders, water pots and drinker, poultry cages and coops. With the loan I will allocate $230, to establish a well designed structure for my birds with all the feeding equipment in place to enable my project run seamlessly. What remains after building will be used to purchase more birds am working with a figure of 50 one-month old birds going for USD. 2.00 per bird that translates to USD 100; with plans for further expansion as the project proceeds forth. With your continuous advice and support I am positive that this venture will be fulfilled and be a blessing to my family and the society at large. Thank you lenders as you plan to support my project, shalom.
Volunteer Mentor,
Patrick Obiero.
