Loan Proposal
Growing a business is one of the most challenging and interesting activity especially when the customer base is growing yet the business is not able to narrow the gap between demand and supply. I am in public address system business and it's a business that keeps on growing step by step business of the amount of capital required to acquire new equipments that enhance that the business, therefore buying one thing at a time depending on the demand created and challenges experienced is the way to go. I am currently operating with one speaker stand which affects the sound quality something which greatly affects my market segment. I therefore need to acquire three more speaker stands which will cost me a total of 10,000 Kenya shillings. With the three speaker stands my business will attract and at the same time retain a good customer base.
