About Me

I am a young ambitious IT professional in Nairobi-Kenya, with a Certificate in Computer studies from a local college. I opened a cyber café in Nairobi’s Umoja estate in August 2013 after finishing my studies since this has always been my dream to become a great entrepreneur. Over the years, the growth of the business has been encouraging and I am positive I will realize greater success, especially with the support I am getting from the Zidisha community. After my start-up, people from the neighborhood stopped commuting to town for the services.

My Business

My business offers internet services, computer services, photocopying, printing, scanning, lamination, Face book / Email account registration, KRA PIN registration and document binding to the general public. The business is good especially with the encouragement from the government to embrace ICT as a key factor to development. I chose this kind of business because on top of being an IT professional, I have the passion to venture into entrepreneurship and also contribute positively to the growth of the Kenyan economy.

Loan Proposal

Hi Lenders,
I am a young man with ambition to go to college and study a Diploma in Information Technology because i am a Form 4 leaver. I lacked College fees to proceed for further studies however, I work hard by doing small businesses like running a small cyber café, printing, photocopying having gained these skills from a Computer packages course that i was awarded with Certificate. I do all these things with aim that one day i will raise College fees and further my studies. Surfing is very interesting for me because i gain knowledge & sharpen my skills to support my customers who need internet support. If my business can increase profit by USD 100, I will enroll for this course.
