my dream has always been to have my own chemist. now I have managed to open one after depleting all my savings which I had saved for two years now I really need that loan to expand and purchase the drugs to start me off.Life hasn't been as smooth as any young man could think while still in college.I went through thick and thin just to see my dream come true.After college I had to settle for odd jobs fast for a period of four months.After which i have worked in three private chemists.All through this time I gathered enough experience to get me a job in a private hospital in Eldoret.Even with the hard past that I had before getting there,I kept saving and dreaming of one day opening a private chemist and grow to be a medical distributor one day. Dreams are valid as long as I can dream, one day beginning from where I am I will be that which I know and desire.
I have just opened a chemist which is hardly two months old and really want to see it grow to new levels every month.If awarded this amount I will buy more drugs to fill my shelves and that will bust my capital base.I am based in the outskirts of Eldoret town but even before I move very far,I will ensure I get a space soon within town.The field of medicine is one place that you can not easily flop business wise.In fact i need more money approximately Ksh 300,000 to establish my fast phase.The six thousand will be of great assistance especially now that I am still battling with starting expenses.I am determined to pay in a very short time and keep a good borrowing relationship with you so that i keep growing right within this platform.Thanks for the one who came up with the idea in this site and all the supporters of the good work.
I intend to use this cash for purchasing some of the medicine that I have not already stoked in my chemist.This will help me increase the stock on the shelves.In business we say image is very important.This has always been true and in fact I work on a daily basis to increase the medicine to meet the requirements of my customers.It always brings a feeling of disappointment when a client needs a particular drug,then it turns out that i have never stoked but i need to say it is out of stock.
I need to have make that statement a thing of the past as soon as possible.Chemists make good cash when you have enough medicine.Rental expenses are a bit high but I always know it is only for a moment.This loan will provide a milestone in moving towards a clear dream.Most of out medicines bought at ksh 80 go for a maximum of ksh140.i am certain of making good profits.I will be grateful for assistance accorded.Thanks in advance.
