my names are Ahmed Tanui, a first born in a family of six, two girls and four boys. I schooled in a rural setup thereafter I went to college with an aim of securing a job to help sustain my family had to miss school fees a times. I obtained a machine to do cutting and glazing I intend to expand and to employ more. it is hard for people to assist you, they see it as you're competing with them. I'd like my children to help make this business a leading one in the country. I love travelling as well as socializing a lot.
my business mainly deals with spectacles, I do fitting and cutting of lenses. I am in a
setup so many people with vision problems do visit. a times a client is in urgent need so it normarly takes two to three days but now it's instant. the cost of buying lenses is high but with bulk its cheap. it pays well. I would like to reinvest to expand my business, will also school my kids better. I still need to add some machines to increase work efficiency In my workshop. I opened a mitumba business for my wife also and she has just started.
The discussion rises loan will be used to purchase the tools required hence making the work more efficient. Tools like screw drivers which are designed to suit the job.
