My name is Jane Kiarie, married to Francis Muteru. I am a mother of one boy aged 6 years.
I was born in central region of Kenya and schooled there up to college after clearing my secondary school education. I did a course in Front Office.
I was employed after college and worked for four years in Mombasa and then I left on my own volition since i wanted to start my own business.
I started a mobile phone business where I was selling phones and related accessories. I later changed the business and I started my current business two years ago.
I am a hardworking and honest person and these qualities have contributed greatly to the growth of my business.
My business deals with sale refrigeration materials. I also air conditioners. Mombasa is a coastal town with hot and humid climate which makes it an ideal place to put such a business.
The demand for my products and services is high especially during the hot season. The business is profitable and I make a net profit of about $600 per month.
My business employs one full-time worker and 2 casuals. Given this credit that I am requesting from Zidisha, I will be able to stock more materials in my store hence raise the sales and my profit.
Thank you.
I am glad that my refrigeration business is doing well and my clientele has grown tremendously for the last few months. There is a growing demand of the spare parts and I need more capital to cope up the increasing demand.
If given this money, I will use all of it to buy compressors since they are always in demand and I will make some reasonable profit from the resulting sales.
