My name is Elizabeth Alex. I am a married mother of 3 children aged between 10 and 3 years. I was born in Kitui - Kenya and I spent my childhood years in school while at the same time helping my parents with their daily chores. I would occasionally help them in their farming activities.
I got married shortly after finishing my secondary school education and I now live in Mombasa with my family.
I run a beauty parlor in my estate where I offer a wide range of services such as hair care, pedicure and manicure. I have been running this business for the last 5 years and I have watched it grow by leaps and bounds.
I serve about 10 clients daily. I use the income to run my family budget.
I have planned to use this loan to buy stock for my beauty shop. I will invest in fast moving items which I will be selling as a retailer and using the same to attend to my clients. I will buy items like body lotions, hair shampoos and artificial hair - all which are very popular with the masses.
Since the products move fast, I will be able to use the proceeds to repay this loan and use the profit to grow my business.
Thank you.
My country Kenya is now almost back to normal - thanks to declining Covid -19 cases. As such, I can only see growth more so when we approach the end of year. I am also counting on my husband's support in case things go south.
