I am the third born in a family of seven .My home county is Siaya although i was born and brought up in Nairobi where i have stayed in for the better part of my life.I was born in a lower class family where i went through hardship in my life.I education was partially sponsored with a well wisher who passed away when i was half way but God was with me and i completed my O level. I have worked with various companies and Saccos for the past 30 years rising to the post of a manager.I have vast experience in fleet management and Sacco management and i am currently working for a Sacco and run a public transport business.

My Business

I am currently in part time public transport business but is putting up to venture into a cyber cafe business which i am sure will generate some reasonable income to me and my family.I have already bought two computers and a printer and i am now seeking capital for rent ,internet line and license. My business station is in Nairobi kikomba area just 100 meters from my work place.The business is a service delivery business and the demand for the services is high.
For the sake of clarity I'll focus on a small budget and will employ two people to help me do the business.From my research the average daily projected income will be $60 with daily expenses of $ 20. The target is achievable although it will be difficult to meet the target within the first six months of operation.The business will run for 6 days a week and i assume that i will make a saving of $ 40 daily which is equivalent to $ 1,040 per month (26 days). The starting Capital for the business is approximately $ 1800.
With a projected profit after tax and expenses of $ 340 per month, i will be able to pay back the tax and the loan comfortably in twelve months.

I will use my profit to support the orphans widows and the elderly in my village.I will also support some parents from poor families by paying partial fees to their bright children and support our local church. I wish to expand the business as well in future.
