About Me

I live in Naivasha town,i have lived here for the last eight years.Am kenyan by birth,born and brought up in Mathira,Nyeri county,Later we relocated to a place called Ragati near Nanyuki town.That is where the rest of my family members live.i came to Naivasha for studies and later settled here.Naivasha is a very nice place in terms of climate and business wise this is because the town is near the capital city of kenya again it attracts a lot of people because of the lake.i finished my education sometimes back.Am now employed by the Presbyterian church of East Africa Naivasha town as a youth ,teans and children cordinator.

My Business

I operate a small business of selling fruits in Naivasha town.i sell them at retail prices.I have been in this business for the last one year .the reason as to why i got interested in this business is because the products are easy to get and there is ready market.The rampant growth of the population in this town makes me fill that i should add my stock so as to continue attracting more customers.I have employed one person who operates the business on my behalf and join him later after job. i make a profit of ksh 10,000 (117 dollars) per month which i fill is becoming too little to cater for my needs.If by Gods favor i get a loan to make my business grow , i will shift my business from retail to both retail and wholesale selling.Thanks to god for Zidisha because i believe you will help me achieve my dreams.If i get the cash i will use 115 dollars to add my stock of water melons,mangoes,bananas, an some other types of fruits

Loan Proposal

I wonna take opportunity to thank you for supporting me with the first loan which has helped me grow with a small margin in my business.this have continued help me sustain and add more customers to my business.I am now applying my second loan so that i will continue to add more stock to the business which still will help me attract a bigger number of customers and maybe open another shop in future .I will use the all the 294 dollars to stock more fruits and also facilitate me go for the fruits from mashambani( farms in the villages)
