During my free time I like social work as a way of giving back to the community, mentoring the younger generation through motivational talks and watching football especially during the weekends.

My Business

I operate a kiok business in section 58 in nakuru approximately one and half kilometers from Nakuru town. Where I sell food stuffs such as unga(flour), biscuits, sweets, mandazis, phone airtime which are fast moving products. I choose do engage in this business because of the high population in this area and so many road juctions in this area which gives me a very big number of customers hence high stock turnover in a week enabling me to make high returns. Despite of having other kiosks around my customers tend to love my shop due to the quality of services and customer friendliness of my place this has enabled me attract and retain more customers throughout the years.
In a month am able to make averagely USD 1000 in normal times but upto USD 1200 in peak seasons I.e when schools close in April, August and December when the population of people with families increase tremendously. Am also projecting high demand of my products due to the favourable. climate in the fourth comming general elections. My expenditures for the month include; Rent, electricity, labour and purchases which translate to averagely USD 700 in a month.In addition am operating milk ATM which has really booster not only my income but also the community at large.

Loan Proposal

Am anticipating to boost my business with more capital so that I may achieve its growth prospect in future to actualize my business plan. Am intending to use 900 Dollars increase my stock and use the remainder in improving the outlook the business premises I.e painting and rebranding. Am projecting to increase profit margin from the current 25% to 30%
