About Me

First of all i will thank the zidisha team for accepting me to be part of the family. My name is John Lelei Residing in a place called Chepkoilel in eldoret town. I am married and a happy father of 2,my first born child is in class 4 and the other one is in class 1.I was born and educated here in eldoret town. I learnt in central primary school, Wareng high school and finished my 8-4-4 edication system at the university of eldoret. It was 1 year after my graduation that i came up with the business idea of opening up a salon. I used the loan i borrowed from my bank plus the little savings that i had as the starting capital for my business. My hobby is watching movies

My Business

I have a salon in eldoret. My salon is named 'Epic Salon' and it is at sugarland plaza just opposite eldoret police station. I do hairdressing in my salon (majorly dreadlocking) and also sell beauty products. I roughly get 6-10 customers in my salon every day but on weekends this number can rise upto 15. The charges for my services are as follows per client
1.Dreadlocking - $18
2.Manicure and Pedicure-$5
3.Hairdressing $6-20 depending on style
I have employed 4 people in my salon who are hardworking and therefore i like working with them. Everyday i make profits of Kshs (4000-7000).I use the profits that i get to pay school fees for my children and also provide the basic needs for my family. In future i want to be the best saloonist in town and i hope with the help of Zidisha i am going to achieve this

Loan Proposal

I am now going for a fan so that every corner of my salon is going to have a fan for the provision of fresh air to my customers. This is going to attract many customers and therefore more profits

    I used the loan which i recently got and which was my third loan to employ two more people in my salon. This has really helped me to reduce the work load and the number of daily customers has also increased
