About Me

I was born in 1984 and joined school from 1991 (primary school) to 2001 (secondary). After doing my O level I joined a driving school where I got a driving license. Although I am not married I am blessed with a girl who is joining class one next year. I love her very much because she is the only child I have and I struggled very much when giving birth to her..

My Business

After doing my driving I decided to start a business because I could not be employed immediately. I started a business of selling New shoes and I’m happy with this business for it pays. I bought my stock from Nakuru or Nairobi in a whole sale and come and sell them on retail price.People like my selections. I do meve also from market to market around Rongai area.

Loan Proposal

I will use the amount to increase the goods in large a mount so as not to luck the and fashion ,also difference sizes of shoes required by customers.The varieties are also necessary for different taste.This will enable me to improve the business and move from one market to another all round the week,with that i will meet more customers .

    Due to unavoidable circumstance,I will be able to be paying K.E.S.2000.This is because at this time,i am expecting to give birth at any time this month.As you know some who is expecting has many challenges,eg some time she may not be able to work very well,some time vomiting.After all i will be able to complete the remaining amount without problem.
