About Me

I am Thomas Mutiso, I live in Nairobi with my wife and kids.
I am 38 years old. I come from Machakos County. I attended my primary school in machokos primary then went to st Charles langa for my high school education after which I joined Mt. Kenya University where I studied business management.
Get a job is always a challenge so I opted to employ myself.
I went into the market surveyed to see what kind of business I would venture into.
I discovered tomatoes were and are always in demand so I thought it would be something worth trying.

My Business

I distribute and deliver tomatoes to my clients. What I basically do is, I go to farmers back in the village, buy the tomatoes then pack them into crates then transport them back to the city, where I repack them according to the orders I received. I also have a small stall where local vendors come to buy then go to sell.
My other clients are restraunts they give me orders and I deliver to them once every week.
My profit range between kes 15000 to 25000 depending on the amount of crates I sell.
I use my profits to educate my kids and take care of other family needs.

Loan Proposal

Hello dear lenders, thank you so much for the support you have been giving me so far, may business is doing well. Due the the rain season the situation at my place of business is bad. I don't have a stable structure so at times this makes it impossible for me to do business so at times am forced to close earlier and this is somehow affecting my business. With this loan of 60 dollars, I will be able to buy the materials necessary to help me construct a shed which will help me do business under this harsh rainy season.
I will buy 3 roofing sheets, some nails and 6 timbers.
I will also spare part of the loan to help me get two crates if tomatoes.
I sincerely hope you will keep your faith in me and my business and help me achieve this through funding my loan.
Thanks in advance and may God bless you.
