About Me
My names are Keziah Nyambura Wangare. I am a single lady living in plot number 591 at Kiptangwanyi trading center. I am a resident of Kiptangwanyi shopping center. I was born in a place called Makongo village. This is just about two kilometers from the shopping center. I attended Muriricua Primary school and later joined Murircua secondary school for my secondary certificate. After school I stayed home for some few months where I was assisting in farming. I later started a business at the shopping center of selling mobile phone accessories. This I started with a small stock of phone covers, keypads and phone bodies. The business slowly grew and at the moment I have quite a good stock and the business is better. I also stocked a few electrical accessories and they are improving the status of my business. I usually get my stock from Nairobi and thus I sell my products at a relatively cheaper price compared to my competitors. I also ensure that I purchase at a wholesale price and this reduces the transport costs.
My Business
My business at the shopping center is that of selling mobile phone accessories and electrical accessories. I do sell covers, keypads, phones bodies, chargers as well batteries. I also do sell electrical accessories. These include things such as torches, bulbs, electric cables, extensions and plugs, lampshades and all sorts of electrical appliances. This business is good and the demand for the products that I sell is usually high. The months of November and December have been very good and the revenues that I got these two months were very good. This business has very high potential and I hope to improve this business to a higher level. The shopping center has electricity and this is good for the business. I love this business and I work hard to satisfy my customers and also to provide the best products for my customers. The main challenges that this business encounters are frequent power outages and high cost of electricity. It is my hope to improve the business through this loan that I will get from Zidisha organization.
Loan Proposal
Thank you for such a great opportunity in my life to be funded with a loan from Zidisha organization. I will divide the money that I will get from the loan into two. The first bunch of the money, I will purchase more stock of phone accessories in the business. the second bunch of the loan, I will introduce electrical appliances in the business. This will increase the number of my customers in the business.
