About Me

My name is David Ndungu and I run a small IT business in Mombasa. I was born in Kiambu county near Nairobi and later re-located to Mombasa, where I came for employment after clearing my college education. I later quit my job to start my current business. My main business involves the provision of IT services such as typesetting, Internet services, and basic computer training. I also do small printing jobs, lamination and binding services. I have been in this business for the last fifteen years. I run my business on rented premises in Mombasa town.

I am married with two school-going children, one aged 13 and the other aged 8. My wife is employed as a teacher. I also do part-time jobs as a graphic designer and videographer.

My Business

My source of revenue is mainly from the proceeds that I get from my business. I supplement it from my part-time jobs that I do over the weekends and during holidays. I provide IT services in a densely populated region of Mombasa where the demand for those services is very high.

I also have keen interest in videography and this gets me good income when hired to do video jobs like wedding, birthday parties, documentaries, etc. My wife, who is an employed teacher, supports me in my endeavors.

Through Zidisha loans, I was able to start up a cybercafe and the sale of computer hardware, and this has contributed a lot to the growth of my business. I also upgraded my computer training section by offering more courses.

Loan Proposal

For a long time, I have always wanted to offer as many ICT services as possible. I have accomplished quite a lot within the time that I have been in this business. I do training and other ICT related services such as cyber café. I now want to dive into sales business where I intend to venture in computer hardware sales. I intend to start with a dozen computer terminals and then build this business gradually to sell other machines like printers and monitors depending on my market response.

I hope to make good return on this venture since I have been in this business for a long time and I have established a good network of potential buyers who already patronize my other services.
