Hello lenders,
my names are Daniel Kivango Malului married to Miriam Mumbua and blessed with 4kids two boys and two girls.Our first born Hervey Kimuli Kivango was born in 10/10/2008 and is currently in standard seven while second born Mary Kaveke Kivango was born on 15th/09/2012 and she is in Grade 3. Our third born Abigael Munini Kivango was born on 28th/01/2016 and she is now in PP2,Our last born Jeremy Mulei Kivango was born on 24th/04/2018 and he has not yet joined school.I grew up in Rural area where I attended both my primary and secondary school before joining a college in a city of Mombasa,where I studied shipping but never sat for my final exam due to lack of exam fee . That's when I got an opportunity to train in a 5 star hotel and landed my first job there. I was able to take myself to college and studied travel and tourism until consultant level.
I started with motorbike spare part business from my salary saving before joining zidisha which gave my business a remarkable boost until I was able to open a new business of water purification which is the newest project I have currently. Thanks to lenders and zidisha at large for this achievement.I have employed 3 workers to start with and sponsoring local rugby club with drinking water every time they have a match.
We are approaching the rainy season here in Kenya. During the rainy season, motorbike tires record the highest sales. For size 2.75/17, I usually buy that at a price of KES 850 (USD 8.34) and sell it at KES 1800 (USD 17.65) per piece. Having subtracted KES 100 (USD 1.00) for transport per each piece I purchase, this gives a profit of KES 847 (USD 8.31). This is nearly a 100% profit and the stock doesn't even last for one week, as every client is rushing to buy before the rain hits the ground. I already have sold the ones I had in stock, so I will add the loan to the cash I've received from what I've already sold so I can order in a larger stock. I would be very grateful to Zidisha lenders for considering my loan application and for helping me to achieve my dream of becoming the leading supplier of motorbike parts in my town. God bless you all.
