i am married with 3 children who are all schooling. i live in kiptagwanyi center plot no 27.in this plot is where i have kept my business which is material which is used by tailoring people . kiptagwanyi is about 43 kilometer from nakuru... nakuru is the major town and where we get the good that i sell to my customers. also some time i send my husband to Nairobi to get me this good and because Nairobi is cheaper than nakuru.i prefer to buy there because the one person who have a business like me sell very high in price because of buying in nakuru.also many people or the people who do tailoring in this centerr prefer my service because i get them the best quality of lining and also cheaper.a bout my education i didnt complete secondary education because my parent didnt have money for my education and also thy prefer to educate my brother as thy say that a girl is to be married and thy will lost all effort that thy have made to educate me to the other family didnt wher i will be marriend, that is how i lost my education but i am trying my best to educate my children to higher education and i knew that GOD WILL HELP ME.
my business entail in material and also thing that is used by tailoring trander in the area like , batton, also lining which is used to the inner of the coat and also i sell other thing like thread which is very useful to this tranders. the business is very profitable and also the demand of my product is high in the area and because there is no any other person who sell this item , there is no much competition the main challenge is luck of finance .poor road in this area like when it rain, also high price of commodity in the area. THIS BUSINESS WHEN I STARTED IT I GOT MANY CHALLENGES BECAUSE THE FIRST PERSON WHO WAS SELLING THIS THING TRY EVERYTHING TO SUBBOTAGE MY EFFORT SO THAT SHE CAN ESCAPE FROM MY CHALLENGING but i tryed my best because i was nowing that i will make it , not like today that my business has no challenge because where hshe get his product is not where i get mine thus making our price comparison very competitive. this business is very good because my product dont cant be damaged because of staying without selling because some time like the month of march business here became very low .
dear my lenders this loan will help me a lot because i will add material in my shop because at this time of festive season many people wear new cloth, this made high demand of my product from my customer who do tailoring in this area who most of them make suit and woman wear so the demand of inner and lining, so i will buy a roll of material, and a dozen of button
