About Me

I am a 37 year old born in Busia but currently living in Eldoret. I grew up in rural Busia where I attended my primary education and secondary education then got a scholarship to study business administration at moi University. The scholarship was a great opportunity that enabled me to get a university education which would not have been possible as my parents could not have afforded to pay for my college education. after graduating, I tried to look for employment to no avail and that is when I decided to start my business. through determination and hard work I have been able to see my business grow. currently the business is able to sustain me and also it helps me support my siblings through their education. I believe that through financial support and the hardwork I put in, my business is bound to grow even further.

My Business

Liberty Icons is a store selling clothes, ladies handbags and shoes. The business was started 5 years ago. Through hardwork and dedication the business has been able to grow and see its clientele base increase. Shoes selling is a sector that is yet to be fully exploited in Eldoret and Liberty Icons seeks to get into this sector to benefit from the gap that currently exists.

Loan Proposal

With the loan that will be received I intend to buy more shoes stock. In recent weeks since I introduced shoes at the store, I have seen more customers come to the store to inquire about the shoes prices. This has had an overall positive impact on my daily total sales as customers not only come to inquire about the shoes but also get to view the other merchandise displayed. This new loan will enable me but more shoes at a discounted price hence translating into more profits for my business.

    I want to thank my lenders for their trust in Liberty Icons and helping to raise my previous loan. The loan has helped the business increase the shoes stock and also it is almost achieving it's target to be a reliable shoes store in Eldoret. With the loan I received I added more pairs of shoes at the store.

    Dear Lenders (special mention to John Minges and Melkmom),
    Thank you so much for your trust in my business. Your loans have been very helpful to Liberty Icons' diversification endeavor. As we speak, I have seen traffic to the store increase today and it's my hope that this will translate to more profits in the coming days as I work on ensuring that there is reliability in our new offer at the store. I want to say thank you so much for your trust in Liberty Icons. I also take this opportunity to welcome new Lenders on board so we can take Liberty Icons to the next level. Thank you all.
