About Me

I was born in a family of four being the third born of the family. I joined kinja primary school in the year 1992 and joined secondary school in the year 2000. After completion of the secondary school i did some domestic work and raised capital to start book selling business which i run to date. I would like to boost my business which i currently run with minimal stock so i can improve my livelihood and that of my children. My hobbies are watching movies and reading inspiration materials.

My Business

I deal with stationery like cartridges books printing papers scissors. In the area of my location there are no many bookshops so with increased stock i can meet my customer daily expectations. I invested in this business because it captures a large customer base which is currently growing. The expenses i incur is of house rent and business permit.my profit am using it in other investment,e.g taxi business. I have also started buying a market store where i can be selling food stuffs and fruits as part of other investment since the business is doing very well in the areas am currently in. In future am planing to do a wholesale and retail business in order to expand my customer base and sell to those who owns their shop for resale.

Loan Proposal

I normally deal with stationery business both retail and wholesale. I want to use the money once funded to re stock the business since the client who normally buy in wholesale are many and thus its opening the business to the most interior part of the county. The client who normally buy in retail are also many since my business is located in the main center and they are many schools surrounding. This will improve my business tremendously especially in terms of the profit and expansion of the business.

    Hi good morning i want to first of all thank zidisha organization and the the lenders who committed their fund and gave me an opportunity to grow business wise . Without your support i will not be this far. When i started with zidisha or when i joined zidisha i had few books i was selling around which was not enough but the people who funded my project gave me a golden opportunity and has grown my business to a wholesale and retail stationery shop which distributes around the schools in my localities, churches and people who buy in small scale. Again i thank you. Your loans and support is something i will always be grateful for . It made my life and that of my family better much better, thank you.
