About Me

I was born in pumwani hospital,went to school at Kilimani primary,There after went to City high and have done sales.I became the bread winner in my family unexpectedly but through the challenges it made me stronger mentally and atleast things are not as tough as before.i started my own business through a former schoolmate of mine who encouraged me and i joined him.the uniqueness of the culture where i live is multiehtnic and you learn some good qualities like being good neighbours, to each other,hard work,togetherness and love amongst different cultures.I want my children to be model citizens and to do what there talent,skills and education enables them as long as they do not violate the rights of there fellow humans and the law of God.During my pass time i like reading articles that inspire me about people,quotes and also articles that broaden my knowledge about people,places and things.

My Business

My business deals with buying clothes and selling.By buying more clothes i will be expanding my business thus having more variety and giving my customers a wider range of clothes to choose from.there is a big demand for quality clothes that my customers keep asking for all the time because they last longer and makes you unique cause they are the latest clothes in the market.I have good taste in clothes and also it was easy to start with minimum capital.I also feel good when my customers tell me they were complimented on there dressing.I can invest something between 15000 to 20000 kenya shillins within a week when business is good and make an average of 5000 to 6500 kenya shillings in a day.Education is the key to success,so i try to give my children the best i can offer,i reinvest also in growing my business and most important try to save a little.

Loan Proposal

I will buy jackets for 6 dollars each and trousers(sweat pants) for 4 dollars each.With a wider collection it will create bigger revenue,improve my living status ,of my family and two workers and also satisfy my customers need for particular clothes.I expect my business to grow as am not always able to meet my customers demand for supply and it will give me more buying power thus more profit.
