About Me

Am a Kenyan aged 40years. Married and living in karuri kiambu. Am a first born in my family and brought up in a Christian foundation. Had a privilege of attending primary and secondary schools. Had also managed to further my studies as I have a diploma in early childhood development education. Am a proud mother of two beautiful daughters both in secondary (Future Doctor and Lawyer)

My Business

I run a green grocery offerings fresh vegetables to the community. Am able to sustain my family, pay school fees and service any loan with the profit I make. Before I started my business I had faced challenges especially financial challenges. I approached a good friend who chipped in and offered a soft loan which I used to open and run it. At first it didn't pick immediately but I was patient enough and also my friend was patient with me. After sometime it picked and I managed to pay the loan and was left with enough money to keep running my business.

Loan Proposal

I love running a grocery kiosk coz it helps in sustaining my family and also servicing any given loan. I also set aside some fruits and vegetables from the kiosk and use them to feed my family. So if my loan is approved I would use the cash to buy peas, potatoes n carrots at a wholesale price and sell them later at a retail price. When I stock the kiosk I will be ensuring the commodities are within reach ie nearer to the customers within my community. After selling them will earn profit which will help in sustaining my family, servicing my loan. Will also ensure I haven't consumed everything as I will use the capital to restock the sold stock.
