About Me

Iam edith cherotich, a fourth year student and self employed,i overcame the hardship to achieve important goal by saving as little as you get each and everyday, by denying myself earthly things just to get what i wanted., i like working in the farm so much because thats where i earn from as at now.

My Business

My business is farming that is tea plantation, this goods(tea) is in demand because its used by people as tea leaves and also it is exported outside the country. Its a good business due to that its doesnt need much attention for you to earn its just the management of the tea plantation, plucking and you get your earnings, my monthly earning usually goes upto 1600kes and i save some amount and use others in my studies.

Loan Proposal

I ll ise this loan to buy more containers to put plucked tea so as to help my workers to ease their work.each container is $1.5.it will increase my end month earnings because there is no tea that will go to waste but all will be boight in tea buying center.

    I will use the requested loan to buy more organic tea species for planting, these will increase the acres of my tea plantation and hence increasing the produce which later increases the income.. Thankyou for lending me this loan.
