About Me
I'm fifth born in a family of eight
Parents were farmers and educated me to high school
I always wanted to be self employed so after being employed for five years started the business of transport.
I operate in an area where there is great demand for commuter vehicles and business is keeping me going.
I have two boys who I have made sure they go to a good school and one wants to an Engineer while the other wants to be a Doctor.
I like swimming and reading.
My Business
The transport business requires a lot of time and waking very early and sleeping late is the business norm.
I transport commuters from Githurai to Mwihoko and on a good day I make 10 trips and each gives me a net of Kes200.
I wanted independence and this business satisfied that.
I use the income to pay school fees and meet other domestic needs like clothing, house rent , food and anything else that needs my attention.
Loan Proposal
I will use the loan money together with my saving to buy a starter motor for my transport van. This will cost about US $ 80.
My vehicle will start easily and make working condition comfortable.
This will enable me to make more trips and increase profit.
