About Me
I am the second born daughter of Maurice odhiambo and Ann Amingo. We are six children in our family and I am single mother of one kid called Fred. i went to Sega girls secondary school and joined Sigalala polytechnic for a diploma in agronomy.
After completing my diploma I got a job with GoK but the earning were meager i could barely meet my basic needs. I struggled for a year but things were not changing.I had to help out my parents educate my siblings but with the little earnings it was not possible.After one and half years of struggling i decided to quit and do farm .It turned out well ,and I am currently passionate farmer.
I have one child called Fred.Fred loves automotive and wants to be an engineer when he grows up. I am working round the clock to give him the best education so that he can achieve his dreams.
I like nature walks ,meeting new people and helping others when i can.
My Business
I grow cabbages ,capsicum and kale's in my half an acre piece of land. I sell them to my esteemed clients who come from the nearby market.
The goods are always in demand because most youths dont engage in agriculture more so vegetable farming. with the ever increasing population the demand is always rising.
i choose these business because I was an agronomist by profession and had a lot of knowledge in agriculture that could propel my growth in these sector.
I use my profits to support my family,pay fees for my kid and siblings and save for reinvestment in the business.
Loan Proposal
Dear lenders.
I am hopeful you are doing well. I am kindly requesting you for finances so that I can buy an irrigation pump for watering my crops @ $150 and knapsack at $75 .The foot pump that I have now is old and is always inefficient while I borrow knapsack sprayer and these has always inconvenienced me when the owner is busy yet my crops need spraying. Thank you in advance.
