About Me
I am a Kenyan young man aged 22years old single and rooted from a family of four having two sisters and a brother. I learnt at Migosi primary school where I did my K.C.P.E and later joined Olembo boys high school where I did my K.C.S.E .
Currently am enrolled at The Kisumu Polytechnic where am taking a part time Diploma course Business Management where I attend my lectures in the evenings.
My Business
I started practicing business when I completed my Secondary education in 2013 where I operated my uncle’s retail shop for 5months then I started my own retail shop with the wages my uncle used to give me and summed up with some money my parents gave me. I operated my shop from 6.00am in the morning to 4.30pm. I close shortly to attend my lectures from 5.00pm to 7.00pm.I later open again by 7.20pm until 10.00pm.This makes my shop unique because I close late and open up very early. I also offer guddies to my customers who come to the shop with children therefore most children even come alone to the shop.I get between 3 to 4 US Dolars per day from sales of my food stuff and drinks.
Loan Proposal
now I have made a small extension at the back of the shop which Will serve as a store. So this is why i need the loan so that I can acquire more stock that are basic for my customers for example 4 bales of baking flour costing 58$ and sacks of rice and maize flour costing 30 $ each . for having this stocks through the loan I'll be able to maintain my regular customers and attract other potential ones. the loan shall be of benefit for my business progress thank you.
