About Me

My name is Nahashon Mbugua I was in 1990 at Kasuku in Nyandarua county being the third born of a family of four. I attended Madaraka Primry School from 1996 to 2004 for my basic education. I later joined ol-njorolok secondary school in the year 2005 to 2009 having completed my secondary education. After school I joined my father in his carpentry workshop where he used to make different designs of furniture for sale. It Is here that I learned how to paint and decorate furniture of different make. I was also able to lean on interior designing. Armed with enough skills is these fields I relocated to the rift valley town of Nakuru to start my own self employment. I am married and blessed with one girl child of whim I love very much. I look forward to join zidisha and become a member of this wonderful platform.

My Business

I settled in the rift valley town of Nakuru in 2011and started a business in interior designing with my savings from what I used to be paid by my father at his workshop. I found myself a rental house in langa langa estate which is among the suburbs of Nakuru town. It is here that I started by taking orders from customers and I attend their homes for interior designing and decorations. I also do decorations for wedding, parties and other events. In my shop at langa langa estate, I sell all this kinds of decoration for the same events. I started this kind of business after I realized that there is great demand of these goods and service in the town of Nakuru. My business does well because I am able to meet its running cost plus all other taxes. I able also get some good money to pay my house rent and take care of my immediate family. I have been able to build strong relationship with my customer who gives me business and contracts. I have so far been able to save and bought a plot at mwariki where I am intending to build myself a residential house. There are a number of challenges facing my business and the most major one is luck of enough capital to stock mare decorative materials in my shop for sale to my customers. I am positively optimistic that with zidisha platform I will break even.

Loan Proposal

given the loan i will use it to expand my business in the sense of renting out a store where my customers will always find convenient to find me unlike now where i operate on mobile,i will rent out a store and stock in more decoration materials so as to reach high sale targets that will be influenced by storage permanent location and will not be vulnerable to weather unlike when am on mobile sales.
