About Me

I had a good early childhood, however my dad lost his job when I was 7 years and we had to move upcountry. That's when life started being difficult for my parents to take the six of us to have good education. I started by business when I lost my job and liked what I was doing I started a business with a similar concept. I have an adorable family with two boys whom I adore currently not sure what they would want to be when they grow up. All I pray for is for His to give me good health to see them through life.I enjoy designing bags with an African concept in my free time.

My Business

My business is called Nina and Company, I came up with the name after I realized I will not have a girl and she is now the girl I never had. Nina and Company is a small upcoming enterprise set to provide eclectic home accessories, gifts and conferencing needs to consumers wanting to create a personalized, The Nina client will have an individual personality and style. In addition to the offering of unique products, unparalleled customer service, quality; value will complement the customer experience. In Year one, Nina will develop its online presence and establish its customer base

Growth plans for Nina and Company include an expectation of quite comfortable total revenue Year One. Year Two will develop services and marketing plans, in addition to the Web presence, so that

a growth rate is realized. It is the feeling of the Directors that these expectations are realistic and attainable

Loan Proposal

If I am given the loan, I will be able to get packaging for the products as It has become an issue in kenya to package products after the plastic bag ban. I will intend to capitalize on the same and offer cheap packaging for business as part of an income generation aspect of my business. With Christmas on the way I really want to get fashionable small gifts and hopefully be able to get a few of my family friends to learn how to gift during Christmas. I also want to take a few samples to corporates especially for purposes of advertising for the corporates that plan to award employees for their perfomance during the year.

    from the last funds, I had reserved a website portal but was not able to obtain it, i instead got a logo designed for my business,see attached. I like the artsy colours and l can now send company proposal with an executive look, especially now that it is going on to Christmas, and I would like to supply company gifts for corporates that give gifts to their clients. I plan to use 10,000/- especially for designing cool gifts targeting company CEOs for the festive season.
