About Me

My name is Patricia Wandia. I am resident in Nakuru county Kenya; I am a business woman running a clothing shop in Nakuru town. I am a wife married to one Simon Macharia who introduced me to this worth Team and I am mum to one boy (baldwyn chaste). I am a born again Christian and also a gospel musician. I love learning more about the word of God, marriages and our social lives as social beings. At my growing up I have learnt a lot in life and some of my failures have been my pillars in my today’s success. I have learnt to keep going as my husband keeps telling me not to lose focus in everything that I do and always keep trying even if others see it in a different way.

My Business

My Husband and i run a boutique in Nakuru town located at Cigma building under the name "Chaste Enterprise”. We do use our profit in reinvesting on our business and also improve our lives. i have loved being in business and this has been a learn platform and also one of my achievements in life. I remember at the start of this business it wasn’t easy but my husband words kept me moving. “Never ever belittle yourself. Even if others do it, don’t you buy into it and agree with them. Instead say, I am a child of God, I am forgiven, a new being and I don’t care of my past. I have a great future ahead of me and I not going to miss It.” he told me. I am looking forward to having an extra clothing sales shop and the reason to why i want to venture into this is because i now understand what it takes to run a good business.

Loan Proposal

I today learnt from a friend that i can really maximize on my profit from selling second hand clothes from either UK or USA.She dropped some samples in my shop and it didn't take an hour before the sample was long gone with my customers leaving the current stock intact.I have been dealing with new clothes from Uganda and i have just come to know that i can increase my profit margin by importing and selling second hand clothes from the two countries.I have just called my friend and asked her whether she has more of what she brought and she was impressed of how my business is doing.she has promised to bring more and we are to share the profit. she has also asked me to get some cash and she will connect me with a person who can be selling to me the clothes in bulk and in wholesale and i can later be in a position to import the clothes for myself. Am so impressed with this new business idea and am sure this is to create a viable substitute to increase to my profit and also improve the quality and choice of my customers at an affordable price.This will also improve the shelf life of my clothing shop and also the quality of my life and my family.
