About Me

I am michael chemuche masinde , a kenyan by citizenship and a father of three. I got educated first at Siangalamwe primary school, then proceeded direct to a polytechnic to study mechanic. My interest and talent was actually not in academics because I I found it hard from the word go. All I needed was to get primary basic education and later on persue my carrier and skills. In fact my father was clever and wise enough to discover my strength and weaknesses at an early stages. I did mechanics and driving at ago. Am an experienced driver who transports goods along kitale -lodwar-sudan highway. I also set up a grocery which my wife operates.

My Business

I operate a grocery and my wife runs it in my absence and on my behalf. I like this business because it generates quick income. Fruits and vegetables are on very high demand inspire of its perishable nature. My targets are mostly schools which buy them on daily basis. I have taken this tender from around five schools so I have to work hard to ensure they never miss my goods as agreed on tender documents. I receive my income and profit per month as we had agreed with these schools. The only disadvantage is that it is like I sell my goods on credit for a long one month. With this tender programme I make sure I dont miss money during this one month to buy and supply my goods regularly without any failures.

Loan Proposal

I would like to add the following to my grocery :

1. Sukumawiki (kales) & spinach - three sacks for 30 dollars


2. different fruits (mangoes, avocadoes, pawpaw) - 30 dollars
Kindly help so that I catch up the the next school tender.
