About Me
i am elijah gichohi mugo, 24 years of age, single. i finished my mechanical engineering degree course this year and am yet to graduate. i schooled in leshau boys high school and attained B+ in the 2010 in my secondary education. i got 344 marks i my pcea boarding primary school. i love inventing and bringing up new ideas. i love singing, socializing and motivating others. immediately i finished my school i felt the need to give back to my community, so i designed a machine that helps in making paper packaging.
My Business
i do sell packaging papers. after our kenyan government did away with the polythene bags i decided to create the mechanical machines to help in making the papers. initially i worked with IEBC and raised enough money to pay all the cost. i plan on making an automatic machine come next year and increase my production because the demand is high.
Loan Proposal
i am planning to buy a motor first as i take some few lessons on how to build this automatic packaging paper machine, all i have are mechanical machines that are slow. God willing i will be able to build this machine this will increase production and sales since the demand is high. i will also need more employers and i will buy a motorbike to do the supplies.
