About Me

I am Kevin Momanyi, Born in 1985. Am the third born in a family of six,three girls and three boys. Having no descent job after my father being released from his job due to uncontrolled drinking, my siblings and i had to work extra hard to provide some help to the family through farming. I managed to make some profit $100 as a result of sales of the farm produce eg, maize,bananas,potatoes, and onions. I used the savings to buy fifteen layers chicken which have multiplied to be 100 currently. My hobbies are playing football, watching documentaries, and planting trees in our homestead.

My Business

My business is that of rearing chicken. I started the business early 2013 with 15 chicks , and now proud to have 100 after selling more than 250 chicken and over 2000 eggs. I usually get a monthly profit of $100-250 less expenses that include feeds and medication. I therefore want to introduce rearing broilers. My savings are not enough to enable me commence this project, but with your help, i will use the $80 that you will lend me to buy 40 broiler chicks that cost $2 each. The remaining $50 will help me buy some chicken mesh, roofing sheet and nails since i already have timber to build an addition structure to rear the broilers. I promise to pay my loan in time and spread good news about Zidisha. Thanks for your help.

    I am glad to have been given this opportunity to get my second Zidisha loan. I feel that i need some time to utilize the loan to realize growth and hence i have decided to buy more chicks and feeds for my poultry. As a result i have temporarily rescheduled my weekly investment to Ksh 200 in order to maintain a good on time repayment record as i wait for returns.

    I will reschedule to a higher weekly installment as soon as i sell 50 broilers.

    Thanks.

    I will re

    Dear lenders,

    The pictures below are not so clear because i have taken them with my phone camera which is not that clear but they can show my progress thus far on breeding broilers. These are my chicks which i intend to feed for the next 6 months for them to gain good weight for better sales.

    Thanks in advance for your kind contributions to my loan.

    Dear lenders,

    It's such a great honor to inform you that my first loan from Zidisha really changed my poultry business in a very positive way and uplifted my living standard. I am proud to say that in December 2014 i managed to sell over 50 well fed broilers at a price of $10 each (Ksh 950) , and i also sold 40 ordinary chicken for $5 each due to the high demand over the festive season. I used some of the profit ($50)to complete repaying my first Zidisha loan, and the rest to cater for my basic needs and buy more chicks and feeds for my poultry business.

I look forward to complete my loan on time and continue to work with Zidisha, since i have realized a positive growth in my business and change in my living standard thanks to Zidisha organization.

    Dear Zidisha lenders, I would like to reschedule my loan because i invested all the money in my poultry business, and the amount that i can afford per week at the moment is KES150.


    I will reschedule to more amounts as soon as i sell the chicken possibly in two months time.

    Thank you in advance.
