About Me

I was brought up by my beloved parents; Mrs Dorca M. Birisi and Mr Thomas O. Kiage under a drastic and humble life. I am the first born in a family of six. I joined primary education through hardship since my parents could not afford to pay school fee for the six of us,in 2003 I joined secondary school where i sat for my KCSE in 2006.
I have not managed to continue with my college studies because of financial constraint. Due to this, I developed my career by savings earned from small business transactions and also from a little capital I had saved which i got from being employed in a small wholesaler shop in our local town. In this life of independence, I believe that I will be on the top, if only I will be given a little push by Zidisha and the lending community at large. Thank you

My Business

I operate a medium sized cloth production premise which is well established in a high demand population area for delivery of services to the entire community and the society at large. These are the services that I offer, all under one roof; i do repair torn clothes, re-style ready made clothes to customer's taste and perfection, sell ready made cloths for different fitting sizes with a supplement of shoes . I do offer quality services to my customers and that is why I have come this far. In the modern life, everything needs incorporation with technology, thus I have a challenge of acquiring a big, better and faster sewing machine to cater for the ever increasing demands of my customers. Despite all these challenges, I en-devour myself to remain focused to my obligations and goals. This has helped me to expand my business and family greatly. All thanks go to God, and the Zidisha Team.

Loan Proposal

I want to buy materials to make clothes and also I want to add some profit which I made to buy a small machine so that to hire one person to assist me in my business inorder to make a profit. I wish to have big business in future I want to make a profit of atleast 500 pee day. And also I wish to hire many people to assist me in my business in future. This loans have really improved my status of living. I appreciate you Zidisha.
