About Me

I am married with 8 children. Five of them are schooling. I live in kiptangwanyi shopping centre where I operate the business of a hotel .Kiptangwanyi is about 42km from Nakuru which is our nearest major town. I live in my own plot number 2325 house number 1.

My Business

My business entails operating a hotel which is in Kiptangwanyi shopping centre. the business has a high demand as a result of the nearby secondary and a prmary school where I get most of my customers. the main challenges that the business encounter are high cost of foodstuffs, frequent power rationing and high cost of living. currently I am using my revenues to expand the business premises and to improve my custome services.

Loan Proposal

I will use my loan to expand my business. I would also like to buy a refrigerator so that I can be able to provide fresh products and also to store drinks such as soda and milk for a long time.

    Dear lenders. I would like to take this opportunity to reschedule my repayment because my business has gone dow of late and therefore making me have some difficulty in my repayment. The drought that was in this area affected the sources of where we get our food supplies. This made the prices of the foodstuffs to go up and therefore I was unable to meet the demand of most of my customers.
