About Me

I have grown up in Kahawa Wendani and successful completed my higher education in health and fitness instructor.

Am married and blessed with two children who are attending school in local community while my wife is engaged in family business.

I run and manage gym as a business and it involves aerobics, salsa, dances and weight trainings. Revenue generated from the business is used to partly offset family expenses and also saving with intention to expand the business. My wife also contributes towards the family expenses and education for the children so I have less pressure but to concentrate on managing the business.

My Business

I have been employed by reputable organization in the health & fitness industry since I completed my education then with savings from my salary I managed to establish my business which is a gym. My business involves aerobics, salsa, dances and weight trainings. Its both customized and general as it depends with the clients. My gym has limited facilities but now am in the process of acquiring more equipments to accomodate more people. I have also hired a young man who assist in the running of the gym while am offering customized services.

Loan Proposal

I wish to apply for a loan of Ksh41,458 equivalent to 400 US DOLLARS this money I plan to buy a leg press machine that cost Ksh60,000.With the funding from Zidisha I will add to my savings and get the machine that I very much need for my gym.This machine added in the gym equipment will attract lots of customers and will also help me maintain my customers who regularly have to go else where to use the machine so with the leg press machine my gym will make more money since lots of customers will be attracted to come and use the machine and this will mean more profits for my business thanks.
