About Me
i was born in the year 1987 April 02. All my childhood years I lived in the western city of Kisumu where i went to school. I have been active in small business for nearly 5 years now. In a country where the unemployment rate is high, one cannot sit around and yet it is not difficult to engage in something. After completing college doing business management, I started in business making doughnuts and now baking cakes also. I am starting a cafeteria.
I have seen the city grow in all spheres and would like to be part in building the society and nation.
I also deal in Office Equipment leasing. It's forward ever...
My Business
Doughnut making, Cake baking, and a small cafeteria. Office services and Office Equipment Leasing. the Doughnut and cake business is in Demand since they are taken with all kinds of bevaerages and drinks. there is a lack of office equipments in institutions. so I tend to bridge this gap by providing the equipments at affordable rates.
for 1 doughnut my normal rate is 4 Kenya Shillings while the cost is 2 Kenya SHillings. the cost of equipment leasing is the price of buying and some places printer ink and printing paper.
I have since started a cyber cafe business in October 2018 that is also picking up very well. I do printing and typing and other office services.
I use the profits for business and home improvements
Loan Proposal
I have previously purchased a mixer with a loan from zidisha but it was of a low duty and was overwhelmed by the work that we have to do. I have since received a catalogue from an equipment supply company that can sell a medium powerful mixer of 1000w which can come in handy for now with the level of production. it costs 86$. I will purchase it online in china and have it transported here. after the tax and transportation, the cost will go a bit up but hopefully the business will have to top up the rest of the money needed to have this since we cannot do without it. thank you.
