About Me

my names are patricia nthambi kilonzo,born in nairobi kenya.went to st pauls primary school,later joined huruma girls seconary .then later joined church army school of bussiness studies.i got pregnant immmedietly after my secondary school.so taking care of my baby was quite hard.i had to juggle my between my studies in college and my bringing up my baby,so i had to work in day time and and go to college in the evening so it was a challenge but still i had to over come.when i finished college i had to find another way to sustain my income as i ws being paid peanuts where i used to work .so i started to buy second hand clothes and sell to my fellow workmates so as to get extra money.where i come from in kenya there is freedom of movement as u can do ur bussiness freely as long its a legal bussiness.and also there is mixed tribes of many communities.i have one doughter who wants to be a lawyer when she grws up.my hobbies are watching movies and getting to know new things eg.fashion,bussiness,networking,languages.

My Business

am employed in a company called mjengo ltd.but i want to start bussiness in supplying cooked food for lunch in the offices,market places,and supermarkets.as u can see nowadays peaple in the market/offices/supermarket ., hardly get time to go for lunch because of the type of job they do,so by taking the food at where they are it makes it comfortble and manage their time well and reduce movement from one place to another.i choose this type of bussiness because where am employed now i have alot of tyme as i work from 7am to11 am so i have extra hours that i can do this type of bussiness and also i have a passion for cooking for a larger group of people. i can start my bussiness with as little as kes10,000.this will help me buy cooking pots and untensils and the foodstuff to start.the profit that i will get i use to expand my bussiness to catering service and later a catering school.

Loan Proposal

With the loan that you will fund me,I will buy iron sheet for ksh 5000,nails and wooden posts ksh 4000,and labour for ksh 2000.this will help my customers to come comfortably to my place and eat without being rained on ,and being burnt by the sunlight,and they will eat hot food because I used to supply cold food to them.Also the remaining ksh 10,000, I will purchase text books for my daughter and new school uniform.

    I understand my balance at the beginning of the September was around 15ksh,and I have paid twice,since then,that is ksh 500+500.......what I know is that my balance as at now is ksh 500,kindly check your records and revert,because you never informed me that untimely repayments will increase other charges.....
