About Me

Am the second born in a family of seven, born and brought up in Kakamega, I schooled at Musemwa Primary, then joined Nzoia Secondary upto Form Four. I later on joined Nyeri Technical and attained Artisan Certificate.
I relocated to Mombasa where I was employed Anwarali and Brothers Transport Company Limited. Due to economic costraints the company underwent, I was laid off and had to look for another job elsewhere whereby I managed to join another Transport company in the same position I held in the former one. The fate befell this one hence I made up my minds to venture into business.
I opened a Welding and Fabrication workshop and is where I get my daily bread.
I am married to a beautiful lady known as Eutropia Mughambi Obwoyere and are blessed with four kids, three girls and one boy.
Am a born again Christian a member of The Friends Church Quakers.I Leave in Magongo,behind Bomu clinic Mkomani house managed by Idime enterprises, House no 641.

My Business

I operate a workshop adjacent to my residence in Changamwe Mombasa where I deal with making steel doors, steel windows, gates. making and repairing local cooking stoves (jikos), repairing and building vehicle bodies and in general metal works.
I look forward to upgrade to a big workshop as the little I generate is not even enough to carter for my family's needs
I cannot do the job on my own but due to little that I make in a day compared to what is needed, I am forced to cut down costs by committing myself to do it on my own. If given support,
I look froward to employ more manpower so that my goal can be achieved.

Loan Proposal

I do propose to buy materials so as they are always available at hand before a customer comes and proposes a particular thing to be made .This will make me be ahead of the area artisans as people have to wait till a client comes and proposes to be fabricated something and wait till he /she pays deposit is when work starts which is time consuming.
The previous loans i were using to buy smaller tools of work thus am not the best but i do have most tools of our trade.
