About Me
My name is Nelly Jepkorir Rutto from Baringo north a district in the Rift valley.I am the eldest in my family and very lucky to be in campus.I have a brother and two sisters who are in secondary school and this makes my parents strain financially because my mother is unemployed.I decided to open a small business where I sell men clothes,so that I save some money which I use to pay accomodation fee,for upkeep and part of my school fees in school.I do this on weekends and also evinings when I have finished my classes.Right now we are on long holidays untill september.
My Business
I run a couple of businesses .I started off with men clothes and with a push from zidisha,I expanded the business.I buy men official shirts in bales and sell them(second hand).A bale is about $120 and contains about 50 shirts.I make around 95percent profit from selling these shirts.I used my second loan to add stock and some plastics to my shop and it is also doing well.I used my fourth loan to buy a smokey trolley but I had to put it on hold after we resumed to school.I did not find someone who could do the business for me.My business is doing really well and I had saved enough to purchase a laptop for school work.Some of the profits go to rent,accomodation money andalso help out my family.
I am also the owner of https://sleep-101.com.
Loan Proposal
I am so greatful for zidishans for making it possible for me and my family.Using profits from my first loan,I was able to get a shop in town and I have applied a licence from the county offices I have also paid three months rent.The most intresting part is the wooden structure I made for my mother just outside my shop.I will open for her a grocery to sell fruits,tomatos,onions and vegetables.She always hawk ground nuts at night and she's been having skin problems.I came to realize that she's allergic to cold as my home area is too cold.The area where my shop is situated is near a college and a police camp so the demand is very high.I will stock men shirts and this time I'll add trausers too.I am looking forward to making huge profits and will pay back in time just like the previous loan.God bless you as you fund my loan and thanks in advance.
