About Me
My names are Mary Wambui from the central part of Kenya I was born in the year 1990 . I started school in the year 1993 and after my primary certificate I joined kabete high school with the help of my pastor. My single mother could not raise the fees and my step dad was against my joining high school. After high school my step dad warned the pastor to stop sponsoring me and with so many treats I had to move out. I travelled to nairobi were I met a friend who was working in a boutique. I was also employed to work in that boutique. After some two years I was able to Start a small kiosk selling second hand clothes. After two years I started going to other towns selling clothes at whole sell price.
After seeing business was good in kakamega I decided to relocate. But after some years I discovered a new opportunity in motorbike spares. Spares
My Business
I sell motorbike spares which gives me a profit of upto 60% am able to raise 6000 kes profit every week. At the same time I do repair myself and most people find it very funny for a lady doing that kind of work I decided to do this business because most people in this town use motorbikes as a means of transport because it's cheap and convenient.
From the profits I make am able to pay fees for my siblings who are in high school I would like them to reach their goals and not like me though I count myself lucky
Loan Proposal
Hi my zidisha family.
From the profits I made I was able to Start another business at my shop. I applied to be an M- PESA agent and I qualified right now am operating with a float of 50000 ksh and I have come to understand that am strategically placed because before noon my float is finished. My wish is that I raise my float to 100000 ksh.
With the 50000ksh at the end of the month am able to get a commission of not less than 15000ksh.
With the new loan I will be able to boost my float to 85000ksh plus my end month commission and with that I will be able to earn a commission of not less than 25000ksh per month.
Thank you all alot I will be looking forward to read from you soon. Thank you and God bless.
