About Me

I married with two wives. I have six children who are all school. I live in Kiptangwanyi shopping centre which is about 41km from Nakuru town . I live in my own farm plot number 150.

My Business

My business entails growing of fast growing crops such as vegetables, Sukumawiki, carrots, tomatoes and beans. There is a very high demand for these commodities because of the shopping centre. Being nearthe shopping centre I am able to get many customers from the centre for those who dont farm. These crops grow fast and within one year I am able to plant three to four times and this means that I supply these products three to four times within one year. I also have a very big dam which I store water and I am able to irrigate my crops during the dry season. The main challenges that I encounter are drought, floods, poor roads which affect transportation.

Loan Proposal

Dear Lenders,
I would like to use my second loan to buy another dairy cattle and add it in my farm. This is because the demand for milk milk is high and there is a potential in this business. I have done a survey and realized that with the plenty of fodder in my piece of land, I could turn it into being more productive. Thanks to Zidisha that I was able to achieve what I wanted with my first loan from Zidisha.
