About Me

I was born in town in a family of six. I went to school in the same town for my primary school and secondary school education. I later joined college and pursued a course in fashion and design. The most memorable moment about my life is that my mother taught me entrepreneurship from a very early age of 10 years. My mother owned a small store in a village called Lanet and she made sure that I was able to collect cash payments and return change to customers whenever the customers bought at the store in Nakuru.
I was taught by my mother to keep time, avoid overspending, saving every coin I received as sales and, above all, to handle the customers in a good way. Today, I no longer live with my mother, but the business principles she taught me have made me who I am today as a businesswoman.
In addition to business, I also work as a design assistant at one of the top five designer companies in Nairobi called Occasions and Days. Today, I live in Nairobi with my husband and daughter. I also serve as a leader in my local church.

My Business

My Hair and Beauty Shop will be located in Kawangware and is targeted towards women, although it is planned to include services for men at a later date. My shop will be offering a wide variety of the latest oil products, hair protection and moisturizing conditioners, and shampoo products. Hair pins and pony tails are to be sold in my shop.
The local town Kawangware is an affluent area with over 5,000 housewives, mothers of school-age children and college-going youth. There are also many professional women working in the local business park that I am targeting. With the nearest equivalent business over 1 kilometer away and offering a more limited range of products and services, I believe this to be a solid investment opportunity.

Loan Proposal

I need to buy new stock for ten men's shirts, fifteen women's tops and juniors twenty school shorts from wholesalers and supply them to my current customers who have placed orders for this clothes. I will buy the ten men's shirts at a wholesale price of 48.90 USD. The fifteen women's tops will cost me 39.12 USD. The twenty school shorts for juniors shorts will cost me 48.90 USD. I will use 9.94 USD as transport money and telephone money.
Each men's shirt will give a profit of 1.96 USD and the ten shits will give me 19.60 USD, each women's top will give me a profit of 1.74 USD and the fifteen tops will give me 17.40 USD and the juniors top will give me a profit of 1.96 USD for each.
This items are already booked by my customers.
Thank you in advance.
