About Me

I was raised in a family of five I being the second born child. I joined nursery school at early stage then later joined primary school where I sat for Kenya certificate of primary education.
I overcame hardships to start my own business where by the little amount I saved from my pocket money while I was in primary school.
Our land or culture where I live we believe in God and trust him in everything we do to prosper.
My children will be the most educated now that I struggle so hard to make there life better than ever.
I like traveling and meeting new people in life to learn more ideas.

My Business

I run a mini shop and cereals. I sale variety of goods like; sugar, salt, cooking oil, soaps etc.
Due to high demand of the goods in area where I live now that am the only running such kind of business.
I had a passion of doing such kind of business since I was young. I had a dream of starting my own business.
My revenue goes to government where they use as tax.
I use my profit in paying rent, helping my siblings in in terms of basic needs and other amount in reinvestment to my business.

Loan Proposal

I will buy stoke for my cereal shop e.g maize, beans, sorghum millet and many more all in 50kg sucks, since the number of customers has increased and the demand for such cereals has also increased, so for now I know I will make huge profits.

    I used the loan funds that I have just completed for stocking more items for my shop, Thise includs bars of soaps, bags of sugar, salt, cooking oil, cooking fat and many more. I have seen a big change in my business since I received the money it helped me to even increase my shop in size, my earnings from this business have made my profit to increase from where I was 15% up to 25%. My increase from thise profit have really helped me in paying school fees for my younger siblings who are still in high school.
