About Me

I was born and raised up in central kenya near Mt Kenya , Kirinyaga County in a family of four kids me being the first born.
During those days there were no many schools as today as could walk for 12 Kilometres to reach my primary school.
I came to be in business after i married my husband who had already started doing electric sales and services. from there i saw an opportunity to introduce a hardware section.
We operate from Murang'a county central Kenya the origin of the Kikuyu community ancestors GIKUYU AND MUMBI. The landscape so beautiful and cool weather. Rivers flow down the ridges, tall trees and water falls make the land wonderful.

My Business

I work as a Hardware shop proprietor together with my husband who operate with electricals and services. Mostly i sell plastic wares , tools , nails, brooms, and many more.
I choose this business because i love doing it as a passion.
With this business am able to support my husband in his projects.

Loan Proposal

With the loan am to stock my hardware with dozens of plastic wares including portable hand wash tanks and liquid soaps. others will include hard and soft brooms, buckets.
With this i will be able to expand my hardware with varieties for my customers needs.
My business will in turn enjoy higher profits of about kenya shillings 6,000.

Income Source

With the current situation of the Covid 19 outbreak am trying my best to maintain my sales through keeping hygiene as ordered by our govt authorities.
I have also started making sales through online market and deliveries although is a platform i have to perfect on. If i will make to see this method work of which am getting to see it work an gonna maintain my normal weekly sales.
I will also make sure i maintain my weekly repayments, such that when sales go down i make to adjust my installments so as not to miss any payment. am really hopeful all will be well with our world economy.

    Loan was scheduled to take four weeks and four payments cleared the loan exactly as planned. Seeing pictures of the shop on the discussion page is an added bonus.
