About Me

I'm Moses Ichingwa Born in Kakamega County,35 years ago . I joined a local primary school there and studied from nursery.I later joined primary education for eight years and passed well and was enrolled for secondary school where i also passed with flying colours. I had a vision to become a business manager in my own business and employ people in my own company. After my Secondary course, I could not get a job. This really contributed to the end of my education and then I had to start looking for an alternative to this. I was now on my own since my parents could not get enough considering there are many siblings in our family. I eventually overcame all these Misfortunes and began to have at least a smile a few weeks after establishing my small business shop along the road. I targeted people from my community since they have to walk long distances to the market to get foodstuffs for their family. I still own ashop a shop along the road which makes me earn a living am undergoing a computer course since i started receing funding from zidisha

My Business

I own a food kiosk(a small shop/place) where I sell different kinds of local foods and stuffs for people especially the locals in my village . Since I started this business, I have developed instantly. I started with selling paraffin, I eventually introduced other heavier stuffs like wheat floor, cooking oil, peas, maize and beans etc. I earn at least 10 dollars daily after paying my attendant and materials. I save 5 dollars, for my future, while the rest I invest in the business. l want to establish my own provision (shopkeeping) firm..I purchase various items:detergents,food stuffs,plastics,milk,clothes,fuel etc.l Hope to expand my business increase profit and income where i will continue the trend of just meeting my potential, only taking on new challenges when someone brought it to my attention that I’d be perfect for the opportunity.

Loan Proposal

I will increase my stock in my food kiosk.I wish to purchase
1.Wheat flour 1kg 2bales@15 =30 dollars
2.Wheat flour 2kg [email protected] =31.2 dollars
3.Wheat flour 500g 3bale@14 =42 dollars
4.Maize flour 500g [email protected] =26 dollars
5.Maize flour 1kg 4bales@12 =48 dollars
6.Maize flour 2kg4bales@12 =48 dollars
7.Sugar 50kgs 1bags @60 =60 dollars
8.Rice 50kgs 1 bag @40 =40 dollars
incase of any balance will top up transport cost.From now to the next four to five months there will be scarcity of food and therefore its demand will be high fetching higher profits from increased sales.I will be able to put up a house for our shelter because i and my family stays on rentals.The rent we pay monthly will be converted to a different investment plan.This is because profit will increase by more than 5 dollars
