I sell home utensils,plastic stands,plastic basins,buckets,chairs,small mattress and school bags.Most people home uses plastic tools eg chairs,basin so there is large number of order for the goods each day.i choose this business due to availability of ready market and easy access of the selling materials and new products from mombasa city also because of the upcoming factories which is enabling many people access the goods.i pay tax, license for the business and also i pay land rent.I use the profit in adding more products, educating my children and helping my parent at home

Loan Proposal

the benefits to me is that i will be able to increase my sales and profits that will assist me to pay school fees and help my parents, i will also be able to employ one person and pay him at the end of the month.
