My name is Ruth James. I come from Meru county in Kenya. I come from a family of six children and I am the fifth born.
My parents are farmers and they managed to educate us through farming.
On completion of my high school, I passed well and joined university where I pursued a degree in information technology. I embarked on looking for employment which became difficult to get and so I settled for a business.
I sell health and beauty products and I chose this business because it requires small capital investment and minimum overhead.
I have been able to establish a network and my business is doing well thanks to you lenders for your continuous support.
I have been selling health and beauty products for 5 years now.
I have a online shop and that's how I get my customers. I chose to do online business because of low costs involved, and also ability to reach many customers.
Health products are in demand especially the weight loss products and skincare products. Many people want to loose weight using healthy products and the products that I sell are so far the best.
Currently, the health supplements are on demand due to Covid19. Doctors are recommending the Zinc, VitaminC, Vitamin D and immune boosters to the patients and also for preventative measures.
My husband and I have been constructing a family house in our rural home. It has been a heavy burden on his shoulders. This is because we have got four children in school and the school fees also has to be paid.
We have managed to do the construction and now have no funds to furnish the house. We need 5 beds complete with beddings, a complete set of seats, well fitted kitchen and dining room.
5 beds each @$350, A 7 seater sofaset @$700, kitchen fittings and dining room @ $500.
If granted the loan and the items are bought and fixed, I will be able to have a peace of mind and concentrate on my business that will be able to generate more income for the family.
