I posses good social, interractive and communication skills. I am also business oriented and posses excellent enterpreneural skills. I operate a computer service business in Nakuru town dealing with the sale of desktop computers, laptop computers, printers, photocopiers, scanners and other electronics. I live in a rented house for which I pay Ksh 5,000 every month as rent. My house is located approximately 3 kilometers from Nakuru town, a distance which I cover everyday by my personal motorbike. I completed my university education three years ago and have since then concentrated on my business investments. I am looking forward to advancing in my line of interest which is business investments and hope to advance even more with the opportunities which have been presented to me through Zidisha.

My Business

I operate a computer service business in Nakuru town dealing with the sale of desktop computers, laptop computers, printers, photocopiers, scanners and other electronics. My business is located in Nakuru town at Shoppers Paradise, 2nd floor room 211 and operates under the name of Jerry’s Computers. I started this business three years ago with acapital of Ksh 50,000 which I had saved from the earnings I received from my previous employment. I used the money to set up the office and pay for the legal requirements as well as the license fees. I then bought some few computers and got the business started. Currently the shop has a stock of about Ksh 150,000 and I am looking forward to expanding it more and more. The money that I will receive will be used for buying stationery which will majorly be photocopying papers since their demand in the area have also icnreased considerably and I anticipate that I will receive a good profit out of the investment.

Loan Proposal

First I a so very grateful to zidisha microfinance for this wonderful opportunity that has enabled many business people across the world to access financial resources. I invested the previous loan very well and I realized good profit since I was able to introduce new products and services which were highly on demand. I will use this money to improve the new services and products that I introduced in my business since they seem to fetch more profits as compared to the original products and services which I used to offer. I am so grateful to Zidisha.
