Inventory of medication for pharmacy

About Me

I am 35 years of age born and brought up in Antuanduru location, Tigania East District, Meru County in the Eastern part of Kenya. I went to Antuanduru Primary School, then Maua Girls Secondary school before proceeding to Kabete Technical Training College in Nairobi where I obtained a Certificate in pharmacy.
I am a resilient person who believes in handwork, prayers and commitment in anything I do. When I was growing up I realize that most people in the village were unable to afford proper medical care due to lack of money and the long distance to the hospital. I therefore decided to start my own pharmacy to be able to assist the less fortunate people in the society who needed proper medical care.
The business at the time was not so good but it improved with time. I recently got married and blessed with a son of 6 months now and I hope he’ll become a physician like me and help me continue to save lives. During my free time I do enjoy singing and reading inspiring medical books.

My Business

My business deals with dispensing viral antibiotic and fungal drugs, as well as conducting some minor dressing to patients. The services I offer are so much in demand since most people do fall sick from bacterial, fungal and viral infections and due to the high level of poverty, they cannot afford medication from private and government hospitals which prove costly and are far away. For every purchase I make I normally incur a purchase cost of about USD120, from which on average, I realize revenue of USD160. Every purchase do not last more than a month. I normally use the part of profit I earn to sustain my young family and the remaining balance I use to expand my business.

Loan Proposal

As soon as I am given this loan, I will be able to increase my inventory and my patients will not lack a single medication when they visit my chemist. I will use USD80 to purchase pain killers like brufen, panadols and Asprin tablets. I would use the remaining USD20 to purchase three packets of Augmentin tablets. This would benefit my business because I would be able to meet the rising demand of antibiotic drugs in the area. I anticipate my profit to increase by USD30 since these particular drugs has got high demand. Thank you so much and God Bless you.
