I was brought up in Thegenge village in Nyeri county. life was not easy since the parents didn't have stable income. They struggled to raise school fees for my primary school education. I was lucky to join High school and with bursary aid I completed my o levels. I had to get casual jobs to raise money for my accountancy certificate course. afterwards I was employed by Equity bank as an accountant where I worked for 5 years. My love for business pushed me to start a cosmetics shop which later changed to a salon. The salon closed due to covid 19 effects. I relocated to Chuka in Tharaka Nithi County and started smokies vending business. I am happy it is growing and trust that with zidisha as partner I will continue to grow.
I operate a smokies vending business at ndagani market next to Chuka University in Tharaka Nithi university. I started the business in year 2021 after my salon business closed after Covid 19 effects. It is very promisingdue to the ready market. I started with one packet but now doung over 4 packets a day. It is my wish to add value like do smochas to increase the uptake and eventually grow to a big restraunt offering variety on the menu.
Thank you Zidisha Team for the opportunity to apply for the second loan.
I plan to stock imported hair treatments which come in different varieties and which I currently don't have in my shop. They are on high demand and this creates an opportunity for my business to grow in the line of my goal to grow the business to a distribution outlet. I want to stock an average of US Dollars 200. Therefore a loan of US Dollars 150 from Zidisha will be handy.
yours Faithfully,
Samuel Ndiritu
