About Me

Am Linet.Since I was a child my passion was in fashion and design. After school my parents wanted I do nursing but followed my dream. I trained in government institution and graduated. Then was then employed for sometime before I raised fund to start my own business. Am currently happy because I did it.I make clothes. beads,necklace and other accessories essential in fashion,design and beauty scope.Once a year during Easter or Christmas I do give clothes to less advantage families.I Have the urge to show other girls and Boys to be self relent and venture into this timeless ever growing industry.

My Business

My shop is in KITALE town along kipsongo road. I deal with textile. I make clothes that are good and affordable to all ,prices range £10-25for clothes £2-5for accessories. I have 3 permanent tailors.I mostly deal with Ladies Clothes but at times i do get orders to supply school uniforms. I do make appro£600 during high season from October to January. I do increase tailors bysource for casual labourers. I have maintained a good relationship with my. customers all along.I look forward to buy most machines, expand and start a school for fashion & design.Zidisha make grow.

Loan Proposal

I want to buy more beads the maasai kind to enable me make necklaces and bracelets for sale...currently in the market many people like things associated with the maasai culture.this culture is from the people living in the Maasai Mara park which is liked by many tourists who come to Kenya.

They have a rich culture that is liked by many across the globe. Am just hoping that after I finish the bracelets and the necklaces I will be able to sale them together with the clothes that I sale known as Masaai Kikoy. You can wear that as a scarf or make shirts, shorts, and dresses from them.
I will sale the complete items to make a profit so that I can help my brothers who are still studying and myself to make a living
Thanks once again...
