About Me

I am a married man aged 29yrs old with one daughter. I am God fearing and trustworthy person. I come from a family of seven and I am fourth born. Both my parents are retired and i have three siblings in secondary school and I help to pay the school fees of one in form four. I have a diploma in accounting and is employed by lupra manpower limited with a salary of ksh15000 per month, i also have a small shop that my mother helps me to run and it brings approximately ksh6000 per month.

My Business

I would like to expand my shop by buying more stock. I sell household products at retail. Most of the villagers cannot afford to buy goods in wholesale or bulk. I also allow the trusted ones to take on credit and pay later, this means i have more customers as the other shopkeepers fear giving credit. I am also friendly and understanding to my customers, their needs are my priority.

Loan Proposal

I thank you zidisha and lenders for the first loan i received. I would like to request for another loan to restock my shop this January especially with school items like exercise books, pens pencils and some house hold items. Since most schools are opening on 4th i believe this commodities will sell real fast. I thank you all in advance.

    I am having a bad season in my business since the rent has been raised and now tha many parents were also taking back their children to school, they took a lot of items on loans promising to pay but it has been very slow. I am reducing the amount temporarily hoping to catch up in the course of next month.

    I talked to Geoffrey today, he said he is experiencing some hardships with the business but as soon as he recovers, he will resume his payments.
