About Me
I am seventh born child with 3 sisters and 6 brothers but fro a humble family.
Our family come from Ndorobo namely the Ogiek who lived on hunting and gathering of honey.
Out 9 siblings two managed to go to school with a struggle( last born and I)
I went through curriculum 7:4:2:4
but after the Form 4 went to college and took a course in Certificate in General Agriculture 1988/90 completed but didn't managed to secure a formal job.
I did some farming engaged in Maize ,Beans, Brasicus and Pyrethrum growing as cash crop before venturing in the entrepreneurs where I self employed engaged in mitumba sales and finally open a Stationery shop where I am still doing it to date
My Business
My Stationery Shop is a registered business namely STAGGE COMMUNICATION dealing with Office stationery, Printing services, Photocopying, Binding and Lamination service.
Starting capital came from the previous work in the farm and mitumba business which I upgraded to a Stationery shop.
The business shop grew gradually because items required so much funds. Went to lending institutions where business drug so much for apart looking for funds to buying stocks I could make funds for loan repayment.
Today the business is almost at break even phenomena and I thank the Zidisha firm for their loan is pocket friendly with little interest
I have left all other lenders and stick to Zidisha firm for better performance and enhance better gross margins.
