my name is Salome wangare wahoya i was born on 13th august 1986 at nakuru being the first born in a family of 4 i started my primal education at flamingo primary in 1990 there after i joined menengai secondary where i did my o levels in 2001. in 2002, i joined Kenya medical training school to studie a course in pharmacy for three years completing in 2005 with a diploma in the same field. i worked with various organization including refugees help hands for 4 years. with some little savings from this employment i decided to start a chemist business. this was after i realized there my family had no enough money to educate my younger brothers and sisters. i settled in gilgil town where i operate the business up to date. its from the proceeds of this business that i have been able to by my family a peace of land where they are today settled and proud of my achievements.
my business is located in gilgil town . this is a relatively busy town with most of the inhabitants being civil servants, business community and farmers. i mainly deal with human and veterinary medicines. there is great demand for these commodities. my customers prefer my shop because my commodities are cheaper than my competitors i usually collect my merchandise from the city of Nairobi from direct importers where in return they are able to give me a better margin. the only risk i face is luck of laboratory equipment of which i intend to buy with the help of zidisha platform. the proceeds from the business are good since i am able to sustain myself and to pay my two workers and government taxes i look forward to perform better with zidisha platform.
Dear lenders i am gladly honored to join zidisha thank to the entire team. since this is a planting season here in kenya,i will now stock my chemist outlet with hybrid seeds, fertilizer and agro chemicals. this will definitely attract more business for additional profits. Thak you all for contributing towards filling my bids.
