About Me

Am john simiyu, born in kitale town. I went through kitale primary and later joined chesamis secondary. In my A level,I performed average. I didn't get a chance to proceed to higher level of education. I decided to start a business to cater for my daily needs.my parent gave me capital to start with.

My Business

After receiving capital, I went ahead and started a business which was already in my mind. I first went to our town and consulted my friend who had already a business in town. He advised me on how to get a place to start up my business, he directed me to the market Master who showed me a space in an open market. He told me to be paying tax on daily basis. I went, bought lady shoes and the following day ,I was in the market.

Loan Proposal

I would like to use the loan in expanding my maize farming. Since there is demand of green maize i would like to plant maize which matures within three months. The weather is conducive since there is short rainfall for short time harvest.At time of dry spell i do irrigation since. At the market the green maize can fetch over ksh15000 depending on the harvest. The profit i get will also invest in onion farming.
