About Me

I went to school and during weekend my parents are mere peasants and practiced mixed farming of Growing cash crops,food crops and rearing livestock.I was lucky to have studied from primary school,secondary and later taken to a technical institute where i got skills.I am trained veterinary though not employed i managed to put more effort every time i get money from contracts i invest in buying livestock back at home.I overcame an obstacle of unemployment and instead became a business person where today i sell milk,Manure and livestock for meats.
What is unique about the culture of the land i stay is that community embrace the virtue of handwork and integrity.My children would want to be educated well and be fed to grow healthy and fit i the society.
My unique hobby that i have i need to call for social reconciliation and tolerance among the youths.I love doing the social work for the community well being.
Thank you

My Business

In the last 6 years now i have so far managed to have four cows a number of goats and sheep.I largely sell and provide milk to the nearby town and hotels,i occasional offer livestock for meats especially goats and sheep,i also provide manure to the neighbors garden at an affordable price.
My biggest challenge is how i can build a modern and good cow shed to even accommodate sheep and goats.All these products are on demand because most people use drink tea with milk in most time of the day thus making hotels demand for my supply of milk.Meat on the other side was highly on demand especially in the just concluded Christmas holidays where people slaughter goats and sheep.The manure helps crops to grow and saves on buying fertilizer which is a bit expensive.My typical cost are mainly on food and drugs,buying of nappier glass and paying the casual laborer.Most of my profit goes towards meeting these expenses as well as paying school fees for my brother and sisters.I also use other money in reinvesting and meeting my expenses.I offer some to the unfortunate in the local children home.
Thank you.

Loan Proposal

I want to start by Thanking you once again for giving this golden opportunity to have my business presented before the lenders choice to continue funding my project.
I will buy Cattle feeds/ hay for daily cows at a cost of USD94.00.
I will again buy pesticides at a cost of USD45.00 and De-worming medicines at a cost of USD33.00.
On the other side, i will also buy Two Milk Jerry cans at a cost of USD22.00
The benefits of this will add more milk production.The milk yield will increase my monthly income with a high quantity of milk production.The medicines and De worming will improve on health for my cows thus keeping my cows on a constant milk productions securing my income per month.
My income will increase from the current USD350 to USD450.I will bring social support to the less unfortunate through help to unfortunate.
Thank you.

    Dear Lenders, I have made attempts to reach Peter and his references and one of them has assured me that they will get Peter to communicate back to me so that I can find out the issues he may be facing with the loan repayment. Thank you.

    Dear lenders, I have talked to one of the references to Peter and he has assured me that he will follow up with Peter so that he may continue with his loan repayment. Peter may be still facing some difficulties but the reference assured me that he would try to assist him in whatever way he can. Thank you.

    Dear lenders, I have talked to Peter Kuria and as he had earlier promised here, he assured me that he will be continuing with his loan repayment from February. i explained to him that it would affect his repayment rate and it was clear that he is facing a really difficult time at home that is in-turn affecting his financial position thus the inability to pay for this month. He however anticipates to be back on his feet from February and continue to repay. Thank you for your patience.

    Hello Zidisha lenders,
    In my previous loan i improved the comfort of my livestock by building a new modern Cow shed which was the main project. I bought 18 iron sheets all at a cost of $115.00.
    I also bought 10Kg of nails of various inches at a cost of $18.00.
    In addition also i bought 3 bags of cement at $15.00, ballast coat $12.00 & sand at $5.00 respectively.
    I also bought different sizes and inches of wood at a cost of $30.00
    This changed even on the outcome of the products hygiene. The new cow shed has reduced infection brought by dirty condition where cows sleep and do the milking.
    This has reduced the chances of contaminating the milk and the cows have been eating clean food and sleeps comfortably.
    Efficiency has also been achieved as an opportunity coming with the loan I took; my worker man no longer moves cattle to different clean location for milking therefore saving time.
    My income increased to USD 350.00 per month as projected. I have been able to help my parents to connect the electricity in our home houses while supporting them with food materials. I also supported my younger brother in his education fees and other needs.
    This has greatly improved my lifestyle and amazing achievement too.
    Thank you very much.
