About Me

Born in a polygamous family, I am the second born to my mom. Mom being unemployed and entirely dependent on peasantry we could hardly make ends meet. I am thankful that this life did not end my dreams but refined my approach, that through the small entrepreneurial adventures from my childhood through to this day I have been able to beat odds.

My Business

My business is an executive salon in the heart of Rongai area which I have done for more than 4 years. I have also secured space in the neighborhood where I opened a Kinyozi which is now picking and I intend to make it high end as the market is generally made of the working class, and I believe with time this will increase revenue and better my life.

Loan Proposal

I will use the money from this loan to buy a standby power generator that will help ensure business operations run uninterruptedly even when there's power failure. I will also use the balance to buy more beauty products for both use in the salon and retail sales

Income Source

Yes, the current economic climate poses many risks. I however have learnt how to cope, and put in place measures that have seen my business run seamlessly, and especially complying with government directives to prevent the spread of Covid-19. I am therefore confident to raise enough money from my business to repay the loan within the given repayment schedule

    Sorry about all the repayment delay. Like I had indicated earlier, ongoing structure demolitions adversely affected my business such that I found myself in a situation I am supposed to meet many financial obligations with my salary. I am however looking at possibility of paying a substantial amount through next month, or even the whole amount if nothing happens to upset my plans again. Otherwise am sincerely sorry I wouldn't have liked this to happen, and thanks for your understanding so far.

    Thanks a lot to all my lenders for your kindness. I will use the money to buy a standby power generator, and the balance to buy more beauty products. This will ensure seamless operations of the business

    The loan I have just completed repaying helped me pay rent for my business stall, and purchase beauty products. This ensured I was in good terms with the landlady, and there were enough beauty products for both use in the salon and retail sales

    To all my lenders, I'm eternally grateful; I received the funds (Kes22585) and paid used it to pay for beauty products supplies. This has improved my business a great deal and I have started partial repayments as I sell. Thanks once again and God bless you!

    Thanks to all my lenders! I will use the loan to pay for supply of beauty products that I have already ordered. This will ensure seamless operations in the salon and I will have some of the products sold in retail price. Thanks once again and God bless you abundantly for your continued support, and changing lives.

    Thanks to all my lenders. The loan I just completed repaying helped me boost stock of beauty products, and this indeed went along way in making my customers happy as they could have most if not all of their needs met under one roof
