Kahuho is approximately 19 Km from Nakuru Town on your way to Nyahururu where you aright at Maili Saba and take a murram road towards St, John Primary School then Karunga trading centre then Kahuho Centre. You ask for Erastus. I am married and a father of 5 children and am a farmer.

My Business

I have 1 ½ acres of land whereby ¾ acre I have planted Ovacado fruits and a fruit tree nursery. When I harvest ovacado fruit I get a total of about Kshs. 70,000 and a fruit tree nursery gives me a profit of approximately Kshs. 100,000. In total I get an annual income of Kshs. 170,000. I have got livestock which gives me an income of about Kshs. 50,000 per year

    This is because the amount which i said that i would be able to pay i thought it was monthly but it seems that you want me to be paying per week which i cannot be able to pay the previous installment. i will only be able to Kshs. 2500 per week.
    Thank you very much

    First I would like to thank all the lenders who contributed to the funding of my previous loan. The loan helped to to open a new Agrovet shop which is still ongoing and doing well. With the loan that am applying, i would like to add more stock to the agrovet.
