About Me
I graduated in the year 2009 with a diploma in Analytical Chemistry but due to unemployment I decided to start a movie shop with money that I saved in college. three years down the line i bought a taxi van/matatu.
I have 3 kids (a boy and two girls) ,the boy would like to be a mechanical engineer like his grand father while my elder daughter would like to be a doctor, my third born is 3 years old. This can only be achieved through proper schooling.
My Business
I do transport business which has been my childhood dream. I love the business because people must be transported everyday from one point to another. I have one taxi van/matatu that helps me to cater for my family, 2 of whom are in school. the day to day running of a taxi van business is sometime costly because it depends on what the van has broken or what need repair so it's hard to have a monthly projection. i would like to buy another van through savings and assistance from lending institutions such as zidisha so that I can expand my business to greater heights.
Loan Proposal
I plan to buy 4 new tires for my taxi van that will cost 300 dollars. This will help make the taxi van do business without interruption,this will help the driver, conductor and me the owner increase the amount we get daily
