My name is Ngunjiri Daniel Ngunjiri. I am married and blessed with one beautiful daughter. My family and I live in Nairobi Kenya. I possess a college level of education; having acquired a Diploma in Applied Statistics from the Kenya Polytechnic (Today’s Technical University of Kenya).
Currently I operate a small business enterprise dealing with Graphic Design and Printing services, which has been my source of livelihood for the last 8 years. I’m also involved in integrated farming to supplement on my income.
I have a strong passion for poultry farming and I’m in the process of starting up my poultry project. I have just completed a poultry structure to house an initial stock of 300 local chickens; with a projection to increase this stock to 1000 in the next 12 months.
I am also a published writer with 1 book title to my name titled “FOOTSTEPS FOR VICTORIOUS LIVING”.
I am in the business of offering printing and graphic design services. This includes the design and printing of business cards, letterheads, flyers and brochures, newsletters, magazines banners and a lot more. The business is small scale but self sustaining.
In a bid to fill the gap for food security in Kenya, I’m diversifying into agribusiness with a focus on food production. My first key project is chicken rearing, with my focus geared on an improved local breed (Populary known as Kienyeji) developed by the Kenya Agriculture Research Institute which has higher yield, lower maintenance and greater resistance to diseases.
This project is also aimed at empowering the community around my farm since I’ll endeavour to encourage them to start up similar projects (though smaller) in a bid to enhance their own nutritional requirements as well as improve their income levels as well.
The chicks I bought with the previous loan are now 3 months of age. I need to put up a chicken run for them to have enough free space without intruding to other farms and for them to grow organically. I intend to buy 4 chainlink wires @4300 = 17200, 20 cedar posts of 9feet long @350 = 7000, Nails @1000, 4 days Labour @1000 = 4000
