About Me
I was born in Nakuru town, 22 years old last born in a family of five.3 boys and 2 girls.i Cleared my O-level in the year 2011 and scored a C+. Am yet to join university due to lack of funds.I engage in Fish farming with the aim one day i will get funds and be able to join university.My goal is to study Bachelor of innovation and Entrepreneurship and later on help others in society succeed in their businesses. I believe with passion,determination, hard-work and God on my side i will be able to achieve my dream.
My Business
Fish farming in Kenya has never been fully exploited.The demand for fish has continued growing daily with the government of Kenya having to import the rare commodity as far as Tanzania,This has led to the price sky rocketing.With this in mind i have been working round the clock to ensure these changes.I will construct a fish pond and create employment for the local youths and also ensure the community is able to get Fish at affordable prices.I believe on the principal of everything is possible through meaningful involvement and settings smart objectives and follow them one by one. I get involve in positive linkages for a common goal and united for a team spirit. I live in Nairobi but the farm I put up my project is the family home, where my parents live.Lets join hands together and bring fish to the dinning table of each and every individual in Kenya and around the world.Its a great source of protein by the way.Thank you zidisha
Loan Proposal
The demand for fish in Kenya has been so overwhelming,I have been getting customers from as far as Nairobi and Machakos,With only a few lakes and the population growing there has been a shortage ever since,If given the loan i will expand from the current one fish pond i have and construct one more fish pond.I will buy fingerlings,paper and wire mesh to protect the pond from birds and other predators.The fish pond will have an estimate of 5000-5500 Tilapia fish.This will positively impact my community as i will be able to employ youths to construct the fish pond and also employ one permanent youth to help me take care of the ponds.With the loan it will not only help me realize my dreams but also help so many other people.I also promise to repay on-time so that it can help other people.
Thank you.
