About Me
Am a Kenyan, Civil Engineer by profession and currently working with the Government of Kenya. Am also a farmer particularly engaged in agribusiness with focus on horticulture.
My Business
I do horticultural farming, mainly producing fresh vegetables for local and export market. I have a contract with an Export company to supply French beans throughout the year . I do local vegetables on rotational basis; these are sold at the city of Nairobi. Currently am farming on a 20 acre piece of land under furrow irrigation in Narok County. Am planning to expand and also venture into fruits for exports.
Loan Proposal
Hi. Having successfully planted acres of french beans, am now seeking to maintain them and taking good care of them. As such, am seeking to purchase fertilizer (about 10 bags of 50kgs) for top dressing. In Kenya, the cost of one such bag is 30 US Dollars, thank you for your support.
