About Me

I am A Kenyan Citizen aged 28 years. I am a self motivated individual who is ready to be assisted and also assist others.
I am happy to develope myself to be at the top but not to be a failure.
I came to start my business when I was informed by a friend how zidisha assist members start the business because I never had the capital but I had the mind of starting a business in my mind.
My hoppy is reading journals especially for business news that may educate me more on issues concerning the business.

My Business

As a young Kenyan I had businesses like Chicken rearing, selling shop items, selling of water and car wash.

Due to inadequate capital currently I only have the water selling point and the mini shop for selling shop items.

In my plan if I can get more capital I would like to revive the bussinesses like car wash and chicken rearing and also I would like to add a business of growing vegetables as I have constant flowing water and a storage tank too.
Currently am selling the shop items such as sugar, bread, milk , rice maize floor and flour, soap and cooking oil.
I chose this type of business because in my area there was no near shop for clients to purchase these items as covid 19 also emerged and travelling so far was also not allowed.

Loan Proposal

I will buy more stock to my shop that will enable my clients get the required goods near them without travelling far.
This will create a benefit of attracting more customers to my shop as I have the goods that they need. To my clients they will feel free and good as they can get the goods near them.
with the increased stock definately this means I will be able to enjoy more profit by sh.300

Income Source

The pandemic is serious but with me I can say that it if fortunate that even if the pandemic is there, I will be able to sell my goods as I deal in basic goods commodies which are generally the food items that even those who are sick may require to eat.
This will mean that my clients will come to buy these food items hence I can get the income and repay my loan back without failure.

    Thank you so much, I have decided to change the amount so as to get the amount that I can easily afford, even the amount available here is still higher than my bracket but I still bring my sincere request to you that I will be paying my balance in bits till I complete it.

    thanks

    thank you very much for your constant reminder and the understanding that you have for me, thank you very much and I appreciate you for your kindness, my promise is whenever I get something I will send it to enable me clear my loan and possibly borrow so as to continue earning a leaving, my request still stands that kindly do not list me with the CRB because if that takes place then I will not be able to borrow and that may ruin my life and I be a useless person in the community. so kindly do not blacklist me in the CRB database. please

    The loan I got I used part of it to acquire a fridge and the other part I used to get electricity, but later things changed due to the pandemic and am not that good financially, that is why my repayment is also not that good, but I request you that kindly dont penalize me, I am going to do my best to clear the loan, thanks

    Due to the corona pandemic I am unable to repay 800 per week at that is why I was requesting that it be lowered up to 200 a week as it wasbefore because that was negligible to me as compared to now
