About Me

My name is Stephen Thuku and and born year 1976 from Kenya. I was born in the Rift Valley province of Kenya now known as Nakuru County and cleared my high school 1990 passed with a Grade C.
I latter joined technical training where I pursued a Certificate and Diploma in Print Technology and finished in May 2001 with a pass.

I got married now with two boys having lost my first born in a road accident. My sons headed to class three at Kilimo Primary School who is now about 9 years old. 

The second son is heading to three years come March 2019. He is still young so he is now at home with a house help. It was difficult to secure employment until 2013 where i got employed by Egerton University on contract basis renewable after two years therefore there is need to secure the life of my loved ones by saving and investing in them and for them.


I ventured in to part time farming where I foresee the future becoming brighter. I decided to venture in the poultry / Chicken farming becuase its manageable, and easy to run.

My Business

My business is a farming venture where I hatch day old chicks and rear them for one month in a brooder and sell at 2 USD per chick which means have done value addition hence the prospects for growth of my business is expected to be very good and profitable. I therefore need to boost my output by buying feeds and increasing the the space for another brooder to increase capacity.

Loan Proposal

The amount i will get from this loan will buy feed supplements pay for collection of other feed material to enhance the mineral composition which facilitates faster growth of the pigs and therefore faster return.
The remaining amount will cater for manual labour for the cleaners and small repairs.
Thank you for your support.
