About Me

My name is Brenda Koech, a business lady currently working and living in Kericho Town, Kenya . I am from a small family of three consisting of my mother, my older brother and myself. My family currently resides in Rongai, Nakuru.
I received my primary school education in Kericho and after successfully completing my primary education, i attended an all girls high school in Nairobi for my secondary education. I later enrolled at a local university to pursue a Business degree in Marketing.

My Business

I recently started a new business venture selling liquid detergents and disinfectants.
I usually send for raw materials from Nairobi, measure and mix them myself, package and then sell them around Kericho town.
I pack the detergents in recycled plastic containers of 500ml and 1ltr but sometimes I get orders of 5, 10 and 20ltrs which usually go to offices and institutions around Kericho town.

Project Proposal

I hope to not only maintain my current stock levels of liquid detergents but also to buy raw material ingredients for disinfectants and shampoos.

    Thanks everyone who funded my project. As explained in my loan proposal, I plan to increase the float level of my mobile money business and also introduce children's items for sale.

    I was able to increase my mobile money float with the last loan however I was not able to make my repayments on time since I welcomed my first born daughter through emergency CS and needed all my savings to clear the hospital bill.

    I used the last loan to increase my float for mpesa mobile transactions and increase my stock of liquid detergents.

    I want to thank everyone who contributed towards funding my last loan.
    I was able to acquire an mpesa line for mobile transactions and the business has been doing well.

    Business has been very slow this month and was therefore unable to keep up with the weekly payments.

    Thanks to everyone who funded my loan. With this loan I plan to buy a simcard that will be used for mobile Banking services.

    The next installment is still too high for me to pay all at once.

    I was able to increase my stock of liquid detergent with the last loan. This has enabled me to maintain a stable supply for my existing customers and also acquire new customers.
