About Me

Am a married man blessed with 5 children living at mtwapa in and i live in my own house.My first brn finished form 4 while the others are still schooling.I live next to Golden key academy.Am a driver and a businessman.I completed primary and secondary education and did not go furter due to fiancial problems.I started a business because my job could not fully provide for my family so had to in order cater for all my family daily needs.I use my business earnings to pay school fees fpr my children and save the rest for the business growth.

My Business

My business is of buying and selling of food staffs e.g cereals. I own a shop at mtwapa.Food being a basic need the deman for food is always there because people have to eat. most people prefer my shop beacause i buy e.g cereals in large quantities and sell them in small quantitiies so its affordable for the medium local people and i also offer credit basis for my custormers.The risks involved in this busines is that other people may like ready made food, creditors take long time to pay the debts and high competition in the area.I make around 2,500 sh per day thus 75,000 sh per month. Daily expenses is about 800 sh thus 24,000 sh per month. I also buy new stock every month worth 20,000 sh .When i do all calculations i remain with 30,000 sh per month.Once i get this loan am looking forward into adding my stock.

    Hello zidisha, Am sorry to have delayed sending my loan repayments as from may 30. This is because i had rough time with my business in the last two and a half months. This resulted to close down the business and go upcountry. I thank God that am now back and resumed in my business. As the business had been closed for a long period i have to regain my customers. Due to this i would like to request my repayment to resume by September as i will have reorganized my self. This will help me repay even in the shortest period. Thank you once again for your patience.
