About Me

I was born in Kiambu county near the capital city of Kenya - Nairobi. I am currently living in Mombasa with my relatives because job opportunities are better here.

I'm a second born in a family of three, went to school up to college, I attained my college certificate in fashion design and interior decoration. My child was a rocky road having to deal with lack of school fees and that has molded me to become the aggressive person that I am today .

My Business

I'm a fashion designer I deal with making of clothes for both men and women . Clothing is one of the basic needs therefore providing quality and affordable clothes is my greatest passion.

I have always been passionate about fashion therefore venturing in it is my greatest dream. Narrowing down to acquiring of fabric, sewing machines and other sewing paraphernalia is quite expensive which is why I'm looking for a start up loan. Profits will go to growing my business and also improving my living standards .

Loan Proposal

I have just cleared my short course in fashion design. Due to lack of capital, I want to start in a small way and hopefully grow progressively. My plain is to buy tailoring items and then sell them to many tailors in my area.

I plan to buy and then sell these items:

1 dozen pair scissors at a total cost of USD 15
Tracing wheels at a total cost of USD 10.

This will be a good starting point and I hope to make some good profit and keep expanding my inventory.

Thank you.
