About Me

My names are Wilson Waema Wambua.Married with now one baby girl. My family consist of five members. My two parents, two brothers and I. Am the last born and a God-fearing man. One of my brothers is mentally handicapped and the other one does casual labours in our village. I live in Mazeras town where i operate a small shop. My parents are aged and jobless so its only me and my brother who earn a living for the whole family. However, I work hard enough to ensure my family is properly catered for. I've never let anything stop me from achieving my dreams. I overcame a lot of challenges to complete my secondary school education.

My Business

I operate a small shop in Mazeras town. I sell cereals, maize flour, wheat flour, sugar, rice, tea leaves, steel wool and soda in plenty. This is because there are so many hotels neighboring my shop.This many hotels are due to so many garment industry workers in this town so I make sure that every hotel is supplied with enough cooking materials. Mazeras town is a fast growing town along the Mombasa-Nairobi highway and there are other companies which have started their manufacturing. This makes me look for more capital to expand my business so as to supply more customers.

Loan Proposal

I will use $400 to purchase more cereals than before .Initially I used to buy one type per every cereal product. But as I was serving my customers some asked me other different varieties . That is why am planning this amount for cereal. The remaining $275 will go to purchasing of stock for my shop. This are manufactured goods . Expanding my business is all what am after so as to cater for my needs and my customer needs.

    Rescheduling my installment because the income nowadays is very low to meet my before installment. so i look foward to continue paying this amount from today henceforth till business resumes ita normality. I tend to think that it is due of rains that are raining in my area of business but all the same its Gods plan.

      Hello Mr. Waema. I hope that you remain well. It is rainy where I am, too. It keeps people inside. I hope that your business will improve soon, it is too bad that it went down in December, right before the holiday season. I want to wish you health and prosperity in 2015.

    Hi Wilson, I hope all is well with you! I wonder if maybe there is some technical bug and you are not receiving these messages. This is now the third appeal to please check on your invitee and mentee James Mwangangi (www.zidisha.org/loan/9464) and let us know what is going on. He is now five weeks behind in his repayments and is not communicating with his lenders. Thank you!
