About Me

This is George Muthoka born and raised in Kenya, East Africa. I am schooled to higher education level currently pursuing a master degree in project planning and management.

I have worked as a teacher in my early working career and as a social worker with various NGOs. Currently I do private businesses.

I am a family man with one wife and 4 Children.

My Business

I do various income generating activities

1. I am a consultant in management and capacity building field. Here I advertise my services and apply for consultation opportunities within and beyond Kenya

2. I do farming, I own land that I use to cultivate vegetables and keep livestock for the market.

3. I do supplies business in gypsum - a raw material used in production of cement, plaster powder, chalk, ceiling boards etc.

4. I am naturing a young business in construction as a contractor and property management.

I incur costs in material purchase, loading, transportation and legal fees. In average I make an income of kshs 200,000/= per month which I use for home supplies, education fees for my children and other disadvantaged children and support to my elderly parents as well as capital investments

Loan Proposal

With this support i will pay for gypsum from my supplier. A ton of gypsum is bought at KES 1,000 and transported at KES 1,200 thus a total of KES 2,200. A 30 ton truck of gypsum would cost KES 66,000. This Loan will therefore pay for slightly above a third of a truck.

Each ton make KES 400 at the factory thus making a total of KES 15,000. a third of which is KES 5,000.

Once ploughed back into the business this facility will help grow the capital base and consequently profit
