About Me

I am married with four children, two of them are schooling. One is in college and the other one is in Primary school. I live in Kiptangwanyi which is about 41 km from Nakuru town. I live in my own farm,plot number 800. This is where I do all my livestock keeping.

My Business

My business entails livestock farming. I keep cattle, sheep and goats for sale. There is a very high demand for these products because we sell to brokers who later resale them for slaughtering. The meat is then distributed to nearby towns such as Nakuru, Gilgil and Naivasha. The main challenges that I face in my business is drought, disease outbreak and poor prices by brokers.

Loan Proposal

I would like to buy some more livestock especially sheep and goats. This is because there is a very high demand for these livestock and I usually have many customers from as far as Nakuru. I also have a lot of fodder and this is important in my business as I will be able to increase the number of livestock that I already have.

    Thank

    Dear Lenders,
    I would like to reschedule this loan of my by reducing the monthly installments. This will enable me to proceed on well with my repayment and also using some of the profits that I will be getting from the business by ploughing back it back into the business. This will be great for me and hope to complete the loan well on time.
