My Business

i sell yarms and sweet potatoes becouse i happen to came from an area where sweet potatoes farming is doing very well.
the goods that i sell are in demand simply becouse i came from an area where farming is doing very well.
i choose this kind of business simply becouse my dad used to do it and it was doing well because the money he use to get was the money that i was paying school fees with.
i usually get like 20,000ksh every month and my typical cost and revenue is between 18,000ksh to 19,000ksh.
the profits that i get i use them as a school fees and to invest in my business.

Loan Proposal

given the loan of 450 i will buy fertalizer because i already have the sidlings which will cost about 10$
i will be able to pay school fees for my siblings and i will also be able to create job opportunities.
with that first loan i will be able to make over 400$ every month.
