About Me

My full name is Esther Waithira Menja. I live in Nakuru County and I come from a village known as Kiptangwanyi , located approximately 40KM from Nakuru town. I am a mother of two and a wife. My education level is ‘O’. People in this region had not ventured much in tailoring. I am a tailor by profession. I thought of being a tailor. People walked far to get their old clothes sewn , or their desire to get new dresses made for them. This is the main reason as to why I decided I made a verdict to start a tailoring shop that deals with both making of new and mending of torn clothes.

My Business

My business is nice, it has grown vast over the last few years in this area. I am serving a bigger community now compared to the time of starting it. However , nothing good comes so easy. I am in dire need of money to expand the same for the people are demanding more new dresses more of them but I cannot satisfy their quest. The other challenge though connected to the aforementioned is that without enough money, people tend to manipulate the one being supplied with the material. A loan from Zidisha will help me cope all these and much others.

Loan Proposal

Thank you all Zidisha team. I wish to use my loan to do the following. Firstly, I would like to buy an overlock sewing machine. This will enable me to make clothes of all design and it is also very efficient. I would also like to buy more and new materials in order to make more ready made clothes for my customers.
