My Business

My business is on the transport or rather Tourism industry in Nairobi Kenya, Tourism has peak and off peak seasons so not full time , i sometimes get bookings with companies like Pwc Kenya and Ecolab East Africa and friends, for me to have a fleet of car's i have to start somewhere and for sure one day my dreams will be valid, as an entrepreneur i believe, Food,Accommodation and Transportation is the way to go.so my side business falls on the Food sector, i started with chicken or Poultry, which is supports my Transportation business

Loan Proposal

The 1st loan i got from Zidisha really helped me and i can a sure you my business is booming right now. On this my second loan i wish to expand my breed of chicken so that i be in a position to supply the whole machakos county with the help of zidisha plus the little saving have made during this short time I am sure of supply the whole county comfortably. I also used the little saving that i made from my 1st breed to expand my car higher company not just operating within Nairobi but even the out skirt of Nairobi City.
I will first use the $100 dollars to build a new structure for the extra chicks which are about to be hached then another $100 dollars for the injection. The remaining balance of $120 dollars I will use these to buy feeds for the chicks. I am sure this feeds will sustain me for some time before I start selling the grown one’s.
I am positive and am sure that i have what it takes to pay back the money that zidisha will raise on my behalf.
