About Me

Introduce yourself to lenders.
Am Mararo Samuel,I was born in a family of seven where I am the fourth born. my parents were peasant farmers. they educated us with hardship.
It was until I was eighteen years old when my friend called me to Kisii town, he took me to his shop, he was making beads of different items like basket, table mat, key holders among others. he trained me how to make beads. when I was an expert, he employed me and he was paying me Ksh 6000 a month.
It was out of the small saving that I also decided to start a small business of making beads.
I come from a community that still regard its culture. Not so many people have gone to school.
I would like my children to be entrepreneurs as government jobs today are so limited.

My Business

I run a chicken project of traditional hens whereby I sell fertilized eggs to other farmers, eggs to hotels and households, two-weeks chicks and sometimes big chickens.
The project is growing rapidly and making me realize good profits. It also has an impact to other projects like farming since the droppings from the chickens are good fertilizer.

My next move will be to improve the structures, increase the laying egg hens for more production. This is due to the increasing demand especially two weeks chicks.

I thank Zidisha family for their support in changing lives positively of many people in my region and globally.

My chicken project is growing fast and I'm able to make real profits that are enabling me provide both basic and other needs to my family.

I look forward for greater experiences with Zidisha org. Thanks

Samuel paid off his loan perfectly. I would gladly lend to him again and encourage others to do the same.
