About Me

I live in Kiptangwanyi shopping center which is approximately 43km from Nakuru town. Nakuru town is our nearest major town within this area. I am married with two beautiful daughters. I live in plot number 432 at the shopping center where I carry out my business with my family. I was born in nandi hills and took my education upto form four on those areas, we later came to nakuru county after post election violence. My business entails a retail shop and a grocery shop at the shopping center. The loan i took from zidisha has real improved my business, very soon i would also wish to be a lender.

My Business

My business entails retail shop and a grocery shop at the shopping center. mostly i have stocked general commodities that are favourable to the local community.I also sell arsorted fruits and vegatables at the moment i have started stocking grains like maize and beans. The goods that I sell range from mere foodstuffs, home ware items as well as cereals and shop commodities. The main challenges that this business encounters are drought and fluctuating prices of fuel which adversely affects the whole of energy industry. i also encounter the challenge of getting good stock in good time, with my third loan am planning to deal with transportation problem by buying a motor bike/car.

Loan Proposal

Hi Lenders,
Thank you for the second loan. I would like to use this second loan to expand my business from retail shop to wholesale. I would like to be distributing commodities to other retailers within the shopping center. This will require quite some money and this amount will be very helpful. Thank you for giving me this opportunity through my first loan that has made a very great impact in my business. This second loan will transform my business to even a higher and much better level.
