About Me
I am a male Kenya citizen currently Living in Gilgil. I am 26 year old, christian and married and blessed with a beautiful daughter.
I studied information technology at Christ the King Computer College Nakuru and got a Diploma in 2008.
I worked as a cyber cafe attendant in Nairobi from May 2008 to December 2008 and as a M-Pesa attendant in 2009.
In 2010, I decided to start my own business and tried several. It was until June 2011 when I started Njomoki Family Enterprise in Gilgil which is where am still at to date. I consider the business a success and one of my achievement since I had little capital to start with but I have been able to make it a stand now for two years.
I am a family guy, open and honest. I like watching Movies Listening to music and a football fun.
My Business
The name of the Business is Njomoki Family Enterprise. I have mixed several businesses into one so as to have more security. I have a cyber Cafe, Candy Shop, stationery and M-Pesa.
The services we offer are; Access to email. Online application and registration. Document, forms and photo downloads. Software, updates and drivers downloads. Type setting, Printing, Photocopy, Scanning, Lamination, Document binding, Graphic and publication design, M-Pesa Services (Safaricom mobile phone money transfer services).
The products we offer are Sweets, biscuits, Snacks Refreshments, Stationery, Few home use products like toothpaste, toilet roll, detergents and soaps.
All this guarantee cash generation of Ksh.1300/= per day on average. This translate to a total monthly income of Ksh.39,000/=
The monthly expenses of the business totals to around Ksh.36,500 and they are, Rent-7000, Internet - 4416, Electricity - 3000, Salary - 8000, Restocking - 10000, Printing consumable - 4000.
The business has provided employment for me and my wife. Margaret Wanjiku
The idea of mixing several businesses is my greatest strength. It grantees income at all time, customer get more services and product and that gives me and advantage over my competitors. Gilgil is a growing town and businesses that offer the same service are few. Also I operate on the policy that customer satisfaction come first and that has enable me to capture many customer including; government offices like the District Children office, Churches like Gilgil P.C.E.A church, Schools like Zamzam Academy, Kekopey Secondary School, D.E.B primary School, St. Patrick primary School, local community to mention a few.
