About Me

Worked for a Supply Chain Company for over 15 years. I have experience and skill on Warehousing, Distribution, Logistic and Transportation. This year I started my own Business - Grains and Cereals Supply chain. Core goal being management of grains from the source who are the farmers to distributors/consumers.

My Business

Currently my business 'Grains Cereals Supply chain' deal with handpicking foreign matter on grains and selling them through a my retail shop at my home area.
Business Mission being:
To provide best low cost on transportation and warehousing solution for clean grains and cereals to our customers, and door to door delivering. "Wash and Cook"
In the current resent months I reused the profits to increase my stock. But due to increase on products demand it has increase the cost of supply due to transport cost buying small quantity due to lack of adequate capital. The product turnaround has increased by 100% after moving into a new shop near a bus stop. Which I positive it will increase more if I advertise my shop.
Goal: 1. working on how to get cheap logistic solution of cereals/grains from suppliers
2. In future own a pickup or a van

Loan Proposal

My wish was to increase the stocks of Rice, green grams and black bean. being the fast moving product in the shop. But with Ksh517 I will be able to buy seal-able polythene paper bags costing Ksh130 and re-package my products. This will attract more customers and increase product handling hygiene.
