About Me

My name is Chrisantus Omariba Orina 40 years old from Kenya I reside in Githurai Kimbo,Nairobi ,County in Kenya. Iam married with 3 children. The first born is in class one and the last born is still under home care aged 1 years and four months old.
I got my primary education in Kisii Kenya and latter joined Nyamira polytecnic with a craft course in Sewing and dress making
My parents were not well established financially but by Gods grace I was able to finish my education for I was sponsored by well wishers.
After school wasn’t able to get a job ,so, I begun selling selling second and new home items, being focused and working hard diligently to raise money to open up wholesale shop. But dint make it, since the burden to cater for the family needs was to demanding and taking lot of the profits I made from the business.
am in the business of cloth making which has been a sour of living for my family.
the future plan is to expand into other towns

My Business

From selling used and new goods to sewing and dress making and clothes by faith I now employ one trained tailors have two sewing machines . The business has been doing well , the demand for sweaters is so demanding, also during school opening months the demand for school uniforms boost my business. I am able to buy my raw material from manufactures in bulk and getting huge bargain hence make good profit when selling the finished products to the end users.
The customers flock daily into my business due to the creativity of my clothes plus the personal relationship I have with them, even the price I charge them is so affordable that is not comparable from my competitors .my earnings from the business I used to pay for the business expenses, pay my children school fees, house bills and save extra to expand my business.
with alot of stock and sales motivation,the business can thrive and grow tremendously well

Loan Proposal

I expect to make good profit since we are starting anew school term by start of the year 2016.At the moment am receiving quite a number of new orders of school uniforms from parents.The money will be used more specifically to buy more sewing materials for the preparations to the festive season and Christmas.
