About Me

I am a vibrant young Kenyan Lady, born from in Nyeri, Central Kenya and bred in Embakasi Nairobi. I am the 5th born in a family of six, I went to our Lady of Nazareth Primary School in Embakasi and Later proceeded to St. Joseph's Girls Kibwezi, for Form 1 & and 2. I completed my Secondary School Education and Senior Chief Koinange High School. I have a Diploma in PR Marketing and Advertising from Kenya Institute of Professional Studies. The hardest part of my life has to be my primary school years and the only way i would say i overcame was through hard work in school which in return earned me a 4 year scholarship in high school.
I start my business from small savings i had. My Hobby is Travelling, meeting new people and making friends.

My Business

I sell Ladies handbags shoes and dresses online. I am looking to expand the business and put up a shop preferably in Nairobi town for easy access for my clients and also cut down on the transport cost for delivery. The reason as to why i chose to sell Ladies stuff because of the target market. at the moment i am saving part of my profit to enable me expand the business in the near future and the rest is for my daughter's upkeep.

Loan Proposal

I will use USD 100 to buy more stock for the Handbags as i have a few pending orders. I buy one hand bag at USD 10 and Sell at USD 20. Will restock dresses with USD 60, I buy one dress at 500 and sell at USD15 - |USD 20. This will benefit my clients as i will be able to deliver as ordered and make for profit for the business.

    Dear Lenders,
    I take this opportunity to thank you. The previous loan has taken my business a notch higher. I was able to restock handbags and they've made me more profit. I was able to take my daughter out on her first birthday and that was a milestone for me. I highly appreciate Zidisha.
