About Me

Mi nombre es Rehema Hidiam soy casada y tiengo dos hijos que están todos en la escuela .Uno en la escuela secundaria y uno en la escuela primaria , el primer nacido es Aisha y la segunda es Hadija . Actualmente me estoy haciendo pequeña empresaria en Mtwapa vendiendo pescado seco que se llama "ng,onda" en nuestro idioma africano . Y el segundo negocio vender ropa usada "mitumba" en Mtwapa por ahora. Estoy haciendo este negocio desde hace algunos años y ha estado jugando un papel importante en mi vida que ha logrado que mis hijos puedan continuar con sus estudios y así se capaz de cubrir todas mis necesidades familiares. Empecé con estos negocios porque mi nivel de educación no podía permitirme conseguir empleo en una buena empresa , así que por lo tanto, decidí ponerme en dicho negocios. Acompañada con mi negocio estoy en condiciones de satisfacer con eficacia mis necesidades familiares. Mi objetivo principal es hacer que mis hijos vayan a la mejor escuela que no ya que yo no tuve la oportunidad . Y al mismo tiempo, mejorar el estado de mi vida familiar. Con las ganancias puedo comprar comida para mi familia y también para pagar las cuotas escolares infantiles. También uso el dinero que recibo de este negocio para cuidar los dos niños de hermana.

My Business

My business is selling dried fish and omena, another one i do sell mitumba i mean used clothes from Dubai. The demand is very high in all my premises because the place where am selling the dried fish is very clean,my prices very reasonable and i do talk to my clients politely so through this i do make them keep on coming back again and again my businesses is profitable because am dealing with the local people direct with my area and most of them are not the rich ones but just the middle class earnings whom they go for reasonable down class goods like the mitumba and the fish for vegetables that's why the demand in my business is very high.the risks that am facing is during the rainy season when its raining then it becomes had to get more clients especially to my ng,onda dried fish fish because when the weather normal changes from warm to cold which can make my products rot and this is the time am going for a loss.my monthly costs revenue is 15,000kshs and monthly profit 34,000ksh so 34,000sh minus 15,000sh is 19,000sh my profit.

Loan Proposal

Hello, thank you for approving my loan application, as a businesswoman i want to see my business expanding, in this i want to add more stock to my business. with this loan i will add more stock to the dried fish,and also add one bag of the second hand cloths. With this addition of these goods am sure to boost the business and i expect more profit.

    Hello am so sorry for the delay in my repayments, this is due to the loss on my business i got after my business premises was set on fire by unknown people. For this reason i would like to reduce the amount of payment so as to give way and time to settle things out on my business. Currently i depend on small income which i intend to save and bring my business back again. Thank you once again for your support and concern. God bless you all.
