My name is David Aswani. Born in a family of five siblings with our parents being peasant farmers, it has been difficult financing my education. It was by dint of hard work and assistance from family members that helped me in completing my business management course. I am currently employed in a motor vehicle spare parts shop. I believe that I can do other businesses so as to augment my salary to help provide my kids with the best of education and help the needy ones in my community.
I started poultry business three years ago with a capital of Ksh20, 000 saved from my current employment. I'm into wholesale/retail sale of eggs and chicken in my community. My farm is located in outskirts of Eldoret Town I make an average sale of 100 creates a week. I have two employees who help with the sale and conveying of eggs and chickens from the farms to the shop, hotels, shopping centers and subsequently to my customers. I chose this kind of business because it’s easy to manage and also its products are highly demanded. I make Ksh40, 000 a month, which I use to pay my workers, pay my children’s school fees and also I reinvest in the business.
Dear Zidisha Team, I thank you so much for lending me the loan. I used the money to buy chicks, which they have grown and they are now giving me profits. I now request for a higher loan which I will use for two things. First I will add more chicks which will help me increase the number of my poultry and also increase my profits. Secondly I will use the loan to clear my children’s school fees and these will enable me to have a smooth payment during school opening day next year January 2017.God bless you.
