About Me

My name is Hannington Wafula. I was born and raised up in Butali village, central Kabras in North Kakamega county in Kenya. I went to Tande primary school where I did my KCPE in the year 2006 and passed well but could not proceed to high school due to lack of school fees. After my KCPE I stayed at home for 2years helping my grandfather with farm work, i came to visit my maternal aunt in Nakuru who introduced me to a Garage Mechanic who trained me as a motor vehicle mechanic where I trained for two years, I specialise in motor vehicle engine repair. Right now i have gained enough experience and work in my own garage, I intend to expand my work shop and buy enough tools for various works in the Garage and start training other interested persons in this field of mechanics.
I am now married with one male child whom I intend to give good education

My Business

I get work to repair public service vehicles within the town of Nakuru and dismantle damaged engines, removing broken or damaged parts of the engines and replace them with good ones, also I do overhaul of engines.
The customers mostly from Public service vehicles require regular maintenance for them to perform their duties well, that is why engines repair or maintenance mostly is in demand to prevent inconveniences to their customers. My charges vary according to the service needed by my customers, but they pay for the spares which may be needed.
The profits i make helps me to expand and maintain my garage and buying new tools to enable me work efficiently. The rest goes to my family basics needs.

Loan Proposal

The items which i require in my Garage and their pricing are as follows
1. Engine oil - 28dollars
This will help me change engine oil of four vehicles at 10dollars which will leave me with a profit of 12dollars.
