About Me

I was born back 1958 and went to school from 1969 to 1975 after doing my primary education certificate. I am married with 6 children, 2 boys and 4 girls. I used to watch women riding bicycles in rongai town which was very odd in some areas and I decided to join them but in repairing the bicycles which attracts a lot of customers.

My Business

As per above, I join Jua Kali industry by being trained by one of expert whom I have employed in order to train me in my workshop. I love this business because it pays what I need. Although there is alot of bicycle garages in the town I do have more customers than others because of the good service I do give them.

Loan Proposal

Thank you Zidisha for your support in my business. The first loan has helped me a lot and I am happy now that you have posted me loan form for the second loan. I will buy the moving bicycle spare parts like tubes, wires, brake rubbers among other spares. In this case i will be in a position of paying the loan well. I do promise to pay in a good time, Thank you for your good support.

    Dear Lenders,
    My face look to be very happy since i first join this wonderful institution.Most of my neighbours used to asked where do i get financial support since the business is propelling day by day,my respond used to be very attractive because i have been telling to visit our web site for more information.In the last three months,the business has not be in attractivd due to lack of harvest which most of our community depend on.

    Dear Florence Wairimu Gitau,
    We mostly use bicycles with the exception of an occasional bus (or our own feet) so we have great respect for the work you do! We're very impressed by how fast you've been repaying your loan and send best wishes to you and your family!

    Very sorry my Lenders because I was supposed to pay by yesterday but due to how the economy in our country has been affected since we held the election, i didn't manage.
    No customers but we hope everything will be okay after the ruling from the Supreme court, In fact we have been struggling to earn the living but by next month I will pay without fail for it is not my wish for this. please bear with me.

    Thanks to the Lenders for the work you are doing through Zidisha. I have been paying my loan on 2rd every month but i didn't manage to do it this month due to going down of my business but this one is normal every year in January when customers are taking their children to school and that is why I am scheduling. I do promise next month i will be in a position of paying in a good time. Once again thank you very much and have a blessed year.
