I am 30 years old married with one child.
I was born in Nairobi.
I have always wanted to be an entrepreneur and have previously sold mobile phones before venturing out into textiles where I saw a big gap unlike the mobile phone business which was saturated and dominated by big players.
I have a bachelor of commerce degree majoring in marketing.
I love travelling and learning new cultures.
I am also an ardent sports fan and regularly attend sporting events all over the country.
I aim to grow my business into a big online retail business and expand my product offerings.
I sell bedroom textiles. These are duvets, duvet covers, pillows,bed sheets, curtains and rugs.
I am based in hurlingum nairobi.
I market my product through my facebook page "Style My bedroom"
The link to my page: www.facebook.com/stylemybedroom
I have over 54000 fans on my page.
I have been in this business for over 2 years now.
I import the beddings from United Kingdom and sell in Nairobi.
I make home and office deliveries to customers via a courier.
My average revenues per month are $1388.
My typical costs are :
$ 40 on Facebook Advertisement
$600 on purchasing stock
$255 on shipping, logistics and customs
$77 on rent for my small office
My profits are on average 30% of my revenues £416.
I use majority of the profits on home improvements, i also re -invest part of the profits.
I would like to increase the amount of stock I hold at any time to avoid stock-outs and also increase product variety for customers.
I would like to use $380 to buy new bedding range specifically targeted at Kids bedroom as I have not exploited this market to its full potential.
This will earn me additional income of approximately $100 that I will re-invest into the business so as to increase my capital.
Zidisha has been of great help to my business for the last few months during which I have managed to increase my product offering ( introduced rugs & carpets).
