About Me

I Phinais Akhamati Atema I am aged 35 years old, married and a father to two kids who are aged ten years and 5years. Attained my o-levels in 1996 and moved to Githurai where I was fortunate to get employed by B.M security l.t.d where am still working as a security guard. I later joined college by using part of my salary where I attained a diploma in marketing management. With the ever increasing bills and expenses saw it good to start a small business early in January 2013 which is managed by my wife.

My Business

My business is situated at Khwisero Township, kakamega county in western Kenya. It involves buying of cloth materials from Uganda. The material is then cut and sewn into dresses for sale. The business has been positive since there’s no other tailor in that small town so we are making a good profit. I now need zidisha team to help me get a small loan which will help expand my business by buying a sewing machine for new employee we intend to employ. The new employee will help cater for increased business from our customers. Thank you in advance to all the lenders and the zidisha team for the magical work they are doing to transform small businesses in Kenya and any other country .

Loan Proposal

Thanks for Zidisha for establishing an excellent platform hence my business is based in Khwisero division in Kakamega county. My business is managed by my wife and it has been in existence since January 2013 and it involves buying materials then making clothes out of it. I have many customers thus I want to purchase a sewing machine and hire an extra personnel to assist in production. The loan will be used to purchase a sewing machine at Kshs 5 000 and more women cloth materials at Kshs 2 500 and also sewing threads worth kshs at 1000. This will enable my business to increase production and meet customers demand.
