About Me
Good morning all members of Zidisha organization, My name is Alex Ndiema, a Kenyan Citizen by birth, 35 years old and a father of two children, we live in mbotela estate, Makadara sub-county, Nairobi County, Kenya. My permanent home address is; Trans-nzoia County, Saboti Sub-county, Machewa location, Bondeni village.
I went to Mt. Elgon Primary School and sat for my KCPE Examination in the year 1997, I passed well but was unable to Join Secondary School due to fee problem. I was forced to stay at home the whole year (1999). During that time I did some business (Photography, I remember borrowing a camera from friends on commission basis till I bought my own; Yashica, up to date I have that Camera for remembrance). I joined St. Marys Secondary School in the year 2000 and did my KCSE exam in the year 2003. I did well but was bot lucky to join university, I did some Computer packages in the year 2005, there after got a casual Job in industrial area; Sumaria Industries Limited where I worked for 5 good years.
My Business
In year 2007 I married and got a child, the cash I was getting was not enough to cater for my daily needs. I decided to venture into business with the little that I had saved, I starting from mandazi business, shop keeping, Cyber cafe with two computers and a printer (hp 3-in-one; scan, copy & print) The business had little or no competitor, so I grew up very fast, I had a lot of customers but few computers, it was not late to re-organize myself since I got introduced to Zidisha by a friend (Abigael), from there Zidisha took charge of my finances as far as business expense and assets are concerned. Right now I have a full Cybercafe, an equipped Photo Studio, an Mpesa and lastly but list, I have started doing supplies. Glory be to God and much thanks to Zidisha and my lenders.
Loan Proposal
Good morning once again my good lenders, I take this opportunity to say thanks to our almighty God who has granted as an opportunity to see the day today, may his name be praised.
Despite the ups and downs of this pandemic disease called CORONA, we are still struggling with life and our businesses are still doing well. We pray hard for the solution to be found so that the affected people and families can resume their daily duties.
As far as my business is concerned, I would like to top up my floats i.e. Mpesa and Cooperative agent, also I would like to do some repairs to my furniture in the Cyber café, without forgetting the most important thing, buy sanitizers, some masks to keep CORONA away from my employees and customers so as to improve the working condition of my place.
I hope my proposal will be considered and get funded on time.
Thank you in advance and my God Bless you all.
