The business has enabled me pay my child school fees as he is pursuing Certified public accounts course and also assist my parents in rural area. I purchase shoes from Eastleigh in Nairobi and for the clothes I buy

Am intending to use this second loan on a number of things as I have budgeted them here below 1. 40% of this loan I will purchase more stock of men’s shoes in bulk. The reason for purchase in bulk is so that the sellers can reduce their selling prices for me, also I will get other services such as free transport and delivery to my working area . 2. 50
