About Me
My name is Martin Mugambi mwenda, an entrepreneur and an agricultural economist who is into data processing and analysis business. My background at Egerton university created a desire to analyse data and try to project it into the future. Despite my big desire to analyse data, Monitoring and Evaluation is my other interest. I always carry the desire to examine and evaluate performance, then guide future performance to achieve the intended goals.
My Business
As stated earlier my business is essentially in data collection, processing, analysis and reporting. My company utilises the latest data analysis softwares and is gradually growing in terms of turn over and staff. The company intends to in future diversify into making surveys and monitoring & evaluation consultancies. Data analysis especially in Africa is a grey area that has not been fully exploited, given that this data can be very much useful to project future trends. Currently the business has 8 employees most of whom were there at inception. Emphasis is majorly put at training our staff on the latest data analysis packages and we also ensure that an annual training needs assessment guides us on this aspect. Our business demand has always been on an upward trajectory courtesy of just some little marketing. We expect that as we release more resources to our marketing efforts, our revenues will triple.
Project Proposal
I want to add any money that will be availed to set up an office and equip it. Agriculture in Africa is at very decimal levels and Africans are dying of hunger due to their low productivity. Kilimo Kenya is a service provider company that will offer farm management services. The company will have a digital app that will register requests for
1. Supply of farm inputs
2. Provision of farm management services
3. Provision of Agricultural extension services
4. Irrigation services installation
5. Borehole drilling services
Currently, the company is opening up its offices and plans to commence with 5 staff. These services are expected to include poultry farming, fish farming and bee keeping, with experts in each of the technical areas. Through use of our app, we expect to get Geographical locations for our service requests and attend to them within 24 hours.
