About Me

My name is John Mucori Kinyua 45 years old, married with five children, living in Komarock Nairobi. Am self employed and a business man currently running an engineering company called Mucs Engineering Services Ltd. I also do enjoy and love farming. My hobbies include swimming, travelling and making new friends.
Am a graduate of Kenya polytechnic Nairobi where I did structural engineering.

My Business

In Mucs Engineering i do steel fabrication and powder coating running big and small jobs. My workshop is situated in Komarock Estate with an area of 1000 square feet which is also my property. We also do steel roofs fabrication and erection around Kenya ie.. petrol stations, godowns etc.
I employ 4 permanent persons and around 10 fundis on the basis of work. I also do commercial farming in Laikipia county where I bought land in 2016. Currently am also keeping livestock for commercial purposes.

Loan Proposal

At this moment I've put down 10 acres of potatoes at my farm in Laikipia county and I shall start harvesting in January 2020. This money I will spend on buying chemicals for potatoes bright and also apply booster hormones for high yield. This is a good lucrative business considering that this is a staple food which never lacks value in the Kenyan market.
