About Me
Am Francis Thuku Wandiga. I was Born in 1980 in Nakuru Free Area ,first born in a family of Four, but know living in Nakuru, Kaptembwo estate. I started my education in Lion Hill Primary School and later in St. Joseph's Junior Seminary, Molo. I later joined Thika Technical Training Institute for my Diploma in Electrical Engineering which I finished in 2006.
After college I sort for employment in various companies like Menengai Refineries Nakuru in 2007 and Eveready, East Africa in 2008 as a Machine Maintenance Technician lasting for a year in each company. In 2009 I decided to start my own business but lack of capital made it impossible so I joined a friend in his workshop and we worked together for one year. In his workshop I gained experience in a relevant field of electronics, Mobile phone repair which I have been doing since then. In 2010 I managed to acquire a room which I renovated to accommodate both phone repair and electrical and electronics work.
My Business
My business name is Hyper IT Solutions which I started in 2009 situated at Njokerio center near Egerton University, Njoro Campus. So far, my income has been increased from Kshs. 15,000 to Kshs. 25,000 average per month since my last loan.
My main source of income is in Mobile Phone repair, computer maintenance and electronics repair. My business location is crucial since the student in Egerton University has a ready market for both Phone, Computer and other electronics repair services.
My business expenses are limited to the cost of spare parts, accessories and the relevant council license which is paid yearly.
It is with great respect that I request for another loan to boost my business.
Loan Proposal
The money will be channeled towards acquiring stock and new end user products that I have not been able to stock in my shop like Computers and printers (I will be able to start with one computer for 102 dollars and a printer for 15 dollars) which will help my start my sales option.
If I get this loan, it will help me increase my income to around 369 dollars from 265 dollars monthly.
