About Me

My name is Monica Wambui Kariuki. I am married with children, all of whom are grown up.

I come from Nakuru. To get there, you take a vehicle that goes to Wanyororo. As you reach Maili Kumi Centre, you proceed to Wanyororo. You then arrive at a stage called Josman. Then, you go to your left for 200 metros. There, you will see a tank where people fetch water (Wanyororo Factory) and you ask for Mama Miana’s home plot no. It is direct opposite that place (Blue Gate).

My Business

I have shop in Maili Kumi Centre where I sell in retail and wholesale. It is a general shop where I keep different types of goods. I sell to people around as far as from Bahati, Wanyororo, Arahuka, Ahero, and the surrounding area. I get about 70,000/month and 810,000/year. The amount I get from the sale is used for upkeep. I also help my children who may be in need. For example, one of my children is enrolled in higher learning and I pay school fees for her. I also help my extended family members as needed.

Loan Proposal

I take this opportunity to thank the zidisha team for lending me money. I have used the amount to expand my business and I have also helped my family through the profit which i got. i am also very grateful due to the incoming loan I will use it to put a new stock in shop and buy new commodity to put a new face in my shop. Thank you very much and may Go bless you .

    I would use the amount to buy a new stock of about KES 100000 in my shop like sorted goods e.g soap, unga, cooking oil maize beans etc. i hope to get a return of 85% profit. I will use the profit to uplift my business.

    Monica,

    Would you consider changing your profile photo to one showing you at your shop? I think the loans that show people in their business setting seem to catch peoples' attention better and fund more easily.

    Best wishes!

    Monica,

    If your loan does not reach 100%, please re-post. There seemed to be more loans than usual resulting in more expired loans. Please do not give up hope. Try again!
