About Me

Am a student at Kenyatta University pursuing bachelor of Education ( Arts) at the main campus. i ail from Kisumu in a family of a family of eight where we have my dad,mum and six children. unfortunately the third born passed on early last year. I started the business because there was monopoly of white meat selling which was fish but a came up with chicken as a supplementing good. I purchase more trays and chicken feeds to increase production.consequently some small cash is saved because regular medication of the chicks is required and that should find atleast some little cash to cater fo it.

My Business

other than studies i do poultry farming i supply eggs to retail shops around and also sell chicken when they get bigger. There is high demand for these goods am dealing with because there is need for white meat but being that fish is the only one that they find locally it is very expensive and again it often gets stale because there is lack of preservative measures. the customers however have to get fresh food.The loan am requesting for i will use to invest more in the business because i intend to expand more selling joints because so far i have a second chicken and eggs selling joint in a nearby market place.

Loan Proposal

to purchase more egg trays and building more poultry houses on my new selling point because the number of hence have increased and they need more space. Then much anticipation is to get more cash to maintain the transport consistency. the loan i intend to create a larger network of customers purchasing my goods by opening more eggs selling joints across the town

    Dear Jacquelyn, I'll do the same next year, fatten up chickens. Not because of these are too expensive, but meat in the super markets here is poisoned with antibiotics and preservatives. My mom got cancer because of all the chemistry in industrial food (which was no problem in Eastern Germany before reunion). Similar problems with honey, I started being a beekeeper this summer, its *ouch* much more complicated than I thought.
    I'm curious, what is being teached in Kenya in Arts? Classical painters? Monet (*lovesomuch*, power!), Picasso, or Kenyan ones? Do you like anonymous modern rebels like Banksy? Does your education include music? If I could, I would not stop questioning, but I don't want you to feel you I ask with importunity.
    I wish you success with all your goals. Sirko
