About Me

My name is John Mucori Kinyua 45 years old, married with five children, living in Komarock Nairobi. Am self employed and a business man currently running an engineering company called Mucs Engineering Services Ltd. I also do enjoy and love farming. My hobbies include swimming, travelling and making new friends.
Am a graduate of Kenya polytechnic Nairobi where I did structural engineering.

My Business

In Mucs Engineering i do steel fabrication and powder coating running big and small jobs. My workshop is situated in Komarock Estate with an area of 1000 square feet which is also my property. We also do steel roofs fabrication and erection around Kenya ie.. petrol stations, godowns etc.
I employ 4 permanent persons and around 10 fundis on the basis of work. I also do commercial farming in Laikipia county where I bought land in 2016. Currently am also keeping livestock for commercial purposes.

Loan Proposal

Investment in my farm for future growth. I have currently planted 8 acres of potatoes which will be ready for the market in December.
At the moment I have challenges with buying fungicides for the potatoes but with the loan I will now be able to purchase. This is a good investment because after the sales, I will be able to service my loan thus generating money for future use and growth.
