About Me

I am a 26 years old, a businessman and a student at the Technical University of Kenya. I set up the business to offload my financial needs while in campus as well as tackle the great problem of unemployment in our youths. I am currently faring excellently well, having a busy barber shop with two employees. I always wake up early and prepare my daily schedule whereby I ensure all is properly set in the business, then attend my classes then return to the shop and continue with other tasks including the managerial responsibilities.I am always gland and joyful for this great achievement and aim to reach even higher. Its my dream to grow to a prominent businessman and to employ a chain of young men and women to assist as many as I can.

My Business

My business is currently performing absolutely well with a high flow of customers around the area. I have two shaving machines and two employees. The business operates from 7am to late at night depending on the customer attendance. I have a great managerial skills, having operated the business for two years with the same employees and everything runs smoothly with minimal supervision. I always bank my income on daily basis and have a relatively good monthly savings. I now intend to open another branch just within the same location but in a different street to have a higher income.

Loan Proposal

I have been working on this plan of starting the freelancing work for a time now, i want to acquire a new complete desktop that will cost $200 . however my savings will also hep me purchase the computer.This project will create employment for myself as i already have an account in one of the freelancing sites other than o-desk.Through this site i am able to make $30-50 a day that Will enable i to repay my loan successfully.

    Team, it has been 4 good years behind the scenes, I thank You all for the good work you are doing, I have learnt a lot in the business world, I have grown from an inexperienced young man to a family man( dad) at 31 years now since our last engagements and still in business.
    I have changed businesses and currently own a restaurant 15 -20 persons capacity.
    I have never forgotten the role zidisha community did in my early 20's when I owned a barbershop...and still in college level.
    I reiterate that by 15th this month I will clear my outstanding loan of $98.
    My conscience has told me that this is the community I can't afford to loose... See you my lenders who trusted me before.....I will be humbly happy to re-unite with you in a more mature and responsible way. Thank you.

    Hi team, unfortunately am not able to repay my initial installment as I had began,this is because of the construction of roads and power line movements at my business that was close. This has made me close and operate at odd hours as this is ongoing until further notice. This has reduced our daily earnings for a while now.
