About Me

i
am married with three children three boys only learning in our local
primary school.the two other boys are in a nursery school and i was
born in the year 1952 in this village of kiptangwanyi. I started
my primary education in the year 1986 and i finished my primary
education in the year 1993 i dint proceed with my secondary education
due to lack of school fees and i married mrs Wairimu in the year
2000 and we are earning our living by owning a retail shop where
we sell petrol and diesel and i also own a pool table.I have been
employed for several years at Lord Delamere Estate and i
worked there as a store keeper.Delamere own a pool table at his
canteen and that factor attracted me to have my own pool table at
kiptangwanyi.I am also having some brothers who relies on me by
paying their school fees in fact i am struggling to educate my
younger brothers because my parents are unable to do so because
they are now aged.

My Business

I
located my business here at kiptangwanyi trading centre and the
business is doing quite good in this area there are less
competitors in this area.I decided to start selling motor fuel eg
petrol,diesel,kerosine since motorists were struggling so much to
get the fuel and the only place that they could find fuel was in
nakuru which is about 42km from kiptangwanyi to nakuru and the
motorists are now appreciating since they collect the fuel from my
shop or from my neighbours shop Abraham Mwangi.I am earning from
8,000 t0 10,000 per month.I pay a revenue of 4200 per year.One of
the challenges that i am facing is that my small shop does not have
a fire extinguisher for the reduction of risks.After receiving
Zidisha loan i am planning to buy one with a certain percentage
and the other percentage i will use by boosting my pool table
business.I also own a pool table which is located just next
to kiptangwanyi market.
