On-time repayments
34 installments • 3%
I am Ian Maina 27years old Kenyan. I am single, a first born of three. Am not living with my family since my mother is working in the countryside at a place called Nanyuki.
I am a computer Science graduate from Makerere university.
From campus I have been offering computer services to individuals and companies and I manage to pay my bills and have started a few businesses in partnership and now running a business for clothes,shoes and accessories.This business is about five months old and it's growing due to customers liking my products and referring more customers which is becoming a challenge since I Iack sufficient funds to get what the customers want with urgency.I am grateful for my friend who has told me about Zidisha.
I play rugby,like reading,networking(especially for business) and travelling.
My business involves buying and selling of new and second hand clothes,shoes and accessories.The strength of my business is that I also market through friends and networks and use social media like whats app and online shops like olx.
The business can generate up to 3500 on a good day but on average it brings 1000-1500 a day.
My main challenge is insufficient funds to stock and get customer orders at a short notice.
Many customers like my products because they are quality and unique.I also offer best possible services including delivering to busy customers.
If I manage to get the loan, I will use half of it to add stock and the other half for short notice orders.This will greatly improve my business.

I will use the loan $150 to increase my stock i.e cloths and shoes which i will source from Uganda since products are cheap there and of good quality.

God bless the entire zidisha community.
