About Me

I was born in bungoma town in bungoma county in the years 1983.I started schooling when i gatanga primary later own i moved to bungoma to complete my o level and college.The hardship i have overcome by believing in myself and doing the write thing by working hard and smart.Something unique about my community is that they like venturing into agribusiness.

My Business

I am a businessman running my own sole business.i decided to venture into this so as to create employment to my fellow youth and also to be self dependent.the people around my community mainly venture on agribusiness , therefore i decided to focus in that industry.My business generates a total of ksh.15,000-25,000 on a daily basis with a serious abnormal profits.

Loan Proposal

The main reason ave decided to apply for this loan is for the purposes of helping me raise enough funds to start a butchery business next to my restaurant.Meat is on high demand within the area where i come from but the supply is very low.Most butchery owners closed shop and ventured into grocery selling after COVID - 19 Pandemic struct hence leaving the meat business to suffer.
By venturing into this business, i will be able help with constant supply of meat within the area and far and my restaurant too will have a constant supply of meat.
By venturing into this business, i will also be able to boost my restaurant business since meat for the restaurant business will be easily a available hence saving on time wasted looking for meat.

Income Source

After carrying out a study around where i stay i came to a conclusion that meat was high on demand but there were very few suppliers hence most meat customers were left disappointed and unsatisfied.By setting up this business, i believe i will be able to get customers who will buy the meat hence i will be able to repay the loan.
By the help of lenders funding a loan i applied in the past, i was able start a restaurant business which is doing well.I can also pay for this loan by using profits from my restaurant business in case the new butchery alone fails to raise enough money to repay for this loan.

    Halloo zidisha members I'm glad today to hav a friend called zidisha, my life has changed let take this opportunity to thank all those who raise their money to fund my loan and stand with my business. The previous loan I apply it makes big change to my business I was able to buy maize to the farmers at the right time also the farmers benefits slot because there didn't use more cost to their produce because I was moving house to house purchasing maize even if the maize was not dry. So even the society in my area were the most benefit by the zidisha loan . It makes a great change to my business Thank zidisha for lifting small business.

    .Am so grateful to be a Zidisha Member,being here has made me make a big step in my Business career.At first before joining Zidisha, i had a Hotel that i was running but Corona come and everything went down,that's when i took my previous loan to make something out of it.I had a ashop that was used as a store,i decide to renovate it so i can do something with the room.I orded a Maize huller machine where it was expensive,it cost around 1.7million Kenyan shillings.The amount is high because it includes the renovation,the installation of the electricity and the machine.Am requesting another loan that will boost my business by buying enough raw materials,which is maize,sorghum,millet,groundnuts,soybeans.Having my business boosted i will need more employees where by ill be creating job opportunity to the community.
    Below are my photos of the Maize Huller already working.

    Thank you lenders for financing my past loan.Through that loan, i was able to boost my business even though times were hard due to the COVID - 19 pandemic.
    I managed to satisfy not all but most of my customers.It is through profits made from that business that am encouraged to apply for another loan and add on to the profits and open another business.
