My Business

My business is called Supreme dailies and retailers.It is located in Naivasha town at Kabati estate.I major in selling milk and also sell foodstuffs and utensil.I have a small pickup vehicle which i transport milk from upcountry to Naivasha.I the sell the milk at a profit.The rest i store in a deep freezer and sell it on demand.I also distribute the milk to other shop keepers.I might buy a liter of milk at Ksh35 and sell it to consumers at sh50 making a gross profit of sh15.I might also sell to other shop keepers at Ksh45 making a gross profit of Ksh10.In good week i might sell 1000 liters of milk to both consumer and other shop keepers making net profit of about Ksh6000.I also make profit of about Ksh 2000 selling other items making total profit of Ksh8000.I will not get problem paying your loan since the profit is enough.

Loan Proposal

When i get sh 7916 i will use sh3000 to add to the stock of utensils.This will help me since there are varieties of utensils that my customer ask and i don't have due to low capital.I will be able to sell wall clocks and vacuum flask which are in very high demand here.I will use sh3000 to ad to the stock of milk.I will be able to carry milk of the whole pickup capacity.Something i have not been doing due to lack of capital.This has lead to loss due to making many trips.The rest i will buy food stuff from upcountry like maize and potato to sell in my shop.This will increase my weekly profit from sh 8000 to sh12000.

    Hi lenders, i take this opportunity to acknowledge you all for what you did to me. The loan you granted me at the starting of this year really did a lot in my life, all those depends on me and the community surrounding me. The extra profit that i got i increased the stock where by i engaged with ripe bananas which are minimal in the area i live. The popular food stuff in the area is potatoes, cabbages, carrots and kales. I get unripe bananas from the neighboring county, i make them ripe and sell ferrying them with my pick up car. while going for bananas i carry few potatoes and vegetables end sell them to the neighboring county. through this business have managed to buy pigs at my rural home and also am planning to start a small scale farming and plant maize and beans. also my youngest daughter entered nursery. the community around me are thankful to me because they are getting their favorite fruit at ease. Am very thankful to you all and am looking forward for another loan upon completing the current loan which am working hard to complete by the mid of this month. You are all good to me and God bless you abundantly.
