About Me

My name is David Kimani kariuki, a Kenyan male born in 1982. I am the second born in a family of five . I was brought up in Kawangware in Dagorreti constituency Nairobi county. I schooled at Loresho primary school up to class six when we relocated to Githurai 45 after the death of my Father. I completed primary school at Githurai Kimbo and proceeded to Gitare secondary school in Gatundu for my O- level education. I am a talented fine artist, painter,graphic designer and interior designer/decorator. I am now married and have to children. After school I ventured into green grocer business in Githurai market a business I carried for approximately 3 years before venturing into my current milk business where i own a milk bar in Githurai 45.

My Business

I operate a milk bar in Githurai 45where I merchandise fresh ready to drink milk and fresh raw for customers who do take away to cook at home. I get the supply direct from farmers at Gatundu. My customer base is the population of Githurai Estate which is one of the highly populated Estate in Nairobi. This provides a ready market and also a potential for expansion through opening other branches. currently I am selling an average of 300 litres per day. my target is to sell average of 800 litres daily by the end of 2014. With the sale of 300 litres daily I make a profit of ksh18,000( Us Dollars 215) monthly. I have created good relationship with my customers who proudly refer other customers to me.This is a sign of growth in the coming months. The major challenge in my business is the cooling system to keep the milk fresh which I believe with Zidisha It will be sorted out.
