About Me

I was born in bungoma town in bungoma county in the years 1983.I started schooling when i gatanga primary later own i moved to bungoma to complete my o level and college.The hardship i have overcome by believing in myself and doing the write thing by working hard and smart.Something unique about my community is that they like venturing into agribusiness.

My Business

I am a businessman running my own sole business.i decided to venture into this so as to create employment to my fellow youth and also to be self dependent.the people around my community mainly venture on agribusiness , therefore i decided to focus in that industry.My business generates a total of ksh.15,000-25,000 on a daily basis with a serious abnormal profits.

Project Proposal

Once again I thank all my lenders for every single contribution to my business, I want to expand my store for storing my cerias because the space i have is not enough for my business, also iwant to mix all types of cerials in my shop.

    Halloo zidisha members I'm glad today to hav a friend called zidisha, my life has changed let take this opportunity to thank all those who raise their money to fund my loan and stand with my business. The previous loan I apply it makes big change to my business I was able to buy maize to the farmers at the right time also the farmers benefits slot because there didn't use more cost to their produce because I was moving house to house purchasing maize even if the maize was not dry. So even the society in my area were the most benefit by the zidisha loan . It makes a great change to my business Thank zidisha for lifting small business.

    .Am so grateful to be a Zidisha Member,being here has made me make a big step in my Business career.At first before joining Zidisha, i had a Hotel that i was running but Corona come and everything went down,that's when i took my previous loan to make something out of it.I had a ashop that was used as a store,i decide to renovate it so i can do something with the room.I orded a Maize huller machine where it was expensive,it cost around 1.7million Kenyan shillings.The amount is high because it includes the renovation,the installation of the electricity and the machine.Am requesting another loan that will boost my business by buying enough raw materials,which is maize,sorghum,millet,groundnuts,soybeans.Having my business boosted i will need more employees where by ill be creating job opportunity to the community.
    Below are my photos of the Maize Huller already working.

    Thank you lenders for financing my past loan.Through that loan, i was able to boost my business even though times were hard due to the COVID - 19 pandemic.
    I managed to satisfy not all but most of my customers.It is through profits made from that business that am encouraged to apply for another loan and add on to the profits and open another business.
