My name is Bernard Nyangweso.I was born and raised up in the western part of Kenya but I relocated to eldoret in the year 2011 after my KCSE exams.I did not marks that could take me to university as I only managed to score a C+ grade and that time direct entry to university was grade B+.I was staying at my uncle's place who was a carpenter and in 2012 he started teaching me carpentry and sometimes he could left me at his work shop.After two years I was good at carpentry and started looking for capital so that I could open my own workshop.I shifted to my own house in 2015 and seeked helped from my late dad who gave me 50,000 as starting capital for my carpentry work.I now started doing carpentry at a place called Kasoya.I got married late 2016 and my business has now grown and I can take care of my family.I now have only two children(a boy and a girl).First born is now in kindergarten and last born hasn't gone to school yet as she is only 8months old.I am a very hard working father and I wish my children to follow my example.My hobby is playing football and basketball
I am doing carpentry work at Kapsoya as I have just stated above. I do make school lockers and chairs for Kapsoya secondary school and central primary school as I was given that tender.I also do male beds and couches and people really like my work.Every month I make profits of around 40,000 the profits I get helps me to provide basic needs for my family
I am in need of capital that will help me to buy materials for my carpentry work. I will buy timbers and nails
