About Me
My names are James Wanjiah, born in November 28th 1985, in Western Kenya. I am a bout to graduate from JKUAT university Nairobi. I used to play rugby, handball. my hobbies are socializing, watching sports, playing and cooking. Now i stay in Nairobi working at Amicabre Travels as Data entry and analyzing .I have a family of 8 members 5brothers and 3 sisters, My mum is widow she live in Ndalu area in Bungoma County Western Kenya.I attend my primary school and secondary school in Western Kenya before i Joined University in Nairobi. In my village people are Hubble and friendly I like to start continue doing my business in the village of rearing chicken. I hard a very difficult life in high when my father died when my father died while in form two, my father was our bread winner and when he left us we remained with nothing to help us continue with education but i mange to pass through that until i joined the university. At university i took eduction leaf i have struggle with the little money i get from the company i work from till now.
My Business
At my Village in Kitale area i rare non normal chickens they are about 50 in number. I sell eggs thus my income at the village. At Nairobi i work at Amicabre Travels Ltd where i get My Salary at the end of every month. This will allow me to pay the loan on time. I am also planing to start a business of selling Fruits, salads at Tena estate, i want loan to help me start the business at the area. Ill buy and sale fruits, make juice from the fruits. I get my salary every month that will help me repay the loan as well as i get money from my raring of chickens in the village each month that can help for payment of the loan. I still want to own fruits salad business that it can help sale and buy fruits at tena market. Ill really appreciate if this loan goes through. The money i need, let put it at sh 4000 will help me buy things like banana, mangoes, oranges, ovacadoes at a discounted rate at our whole sale stall in tena merket, and since my house care taker has given me a small kiosk that i normally sale vegetables and charcoal, ill introduce the fruits to my customers and in no time i hope it will improve as i later start to make juices from the fruits since i have a blender that i bought to help start blending my fruits. Since i am not married i only have a girlfriend who help me to cater for all this, with the chickens at home at least at the of each month i can get a little money from the village let say Sh 5000, i also have a kiosk that sales charcoal and vegetables that the money we get there we use it for our daily chores. I also work, but my salary pays for the house, do shopping, i have to pay for the helb loan and ill also manage to pay your zidisha loan from it. But as we had agreed every Monday i can get sh 200 to pay your loan debt from my small kiosk. At the place i stay there is nobody who blends fruits, customers have to walk along distance to get one, and i thought its good if i start one at the area.
Loan Proposal
ILL BUY FRUITS AND MAKE JUICE AND SALE IT TO THE COMMUNITY AROUND. I HAVE TO START A SMALL CANTEEN THAT OR THE OTHER OPTION IS USING A WHEEL BARROW TO HAWK THE FRUITS AROUND TENA ESTATE WHERE I STAY. I ALSO PLAN TO BE MAKING JUICE I HAVE ALREADY ACQUIRED FEW ITEMS NEEDED, SO WITH THE SMALL LOAN ILL BE ABLE TO BOOST THE BUSINESS THAT WILL MAKE ME START IT AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. AS I HAD PLANNED IS TO BUY FRUITS AT DIFFERENT PRICE IN A WHOLESALE PRICE AND THEN START BY SELLING THEM TO MAKE PROFIT BEFORE I INTRODUCE THE BLENDING BUSINESS. WITH THESE TO START BY SELLING FRUITS I WILL ONLY NEED A SMALL
AMOUNT OF MONEY TO JUMP START MYSEF.
