About Me

I was born and raised in the county of Kisumu in Nyanza. I attended school normally as my parents were well able to pay the school fees and provide me with the basic needs a child would require. I finished my High school and attended the Maseno University for my bachelors degree in Business Admin. Later after i finished my internship moved to Nairobi where i worked as a supervisor in a private firm. Three years ago the firm was closed and jobs lost so with the little i had saved i decided to start a chicken business. As i have observed over the three years i have been in this business, from where i come people love to eat chicken alot. I would like to see my children become farmers like me or Engineers. Am a football fan. i love reading , i love swimming and travelling.

My Business

I am a farmer of chickens. I breed and sell the chickens for a living. Right now i have over seven hundred well grown up chicken ready for dispatch. This goods are in demand as it is a source of food and delicacy that almost all enjoy. I choose this kind of business because it is highly profitable and the demand is way out of line. I supply quite a number of hotels within the cbd and kitengela on a regular basis. That i at times run less in stocks. I spend about 200usd to buy a 70 day old chicks every 2weeks and i also spend 50usd every two weeks on the feeds and water. I use the profits for reinvestment and for my food and transportation costs. I also do some home improvements.

Loan Proposal

I will use this loan to add more day old chicks to the farm. Each day old chick i buy at 3usd so this is like 4 of them but its a good start till i get more loans for more chicks.This will increase my sales by a margin and that's a good thing as the profits will be reinvested to grow the business. I expect the business to grow by twice the amount loaned to me by the end of every month.

    Hello and thanks for the loan. I will use this loan to buy more day old chicks to my farm. This will help increase my chicken stock and avoid running out of chickens hence satisfaction to my customers. Thank you so very much.
