About Me

I grew up from a very humble background and God fearing family. I went to school for both my primary and secondary school in Nairobi. And being the first born in a family of five i had to look for a business to assist our parent.
I could save part of my earnings from casual job as office messenger in industrial area which I used to opened a small cyber in our neighborhood. I only started with two computers and children could come to play games and even a few adults who had their typing work do their. This really motivated me and could enable me carter for my basic needs. I still save as I always been thinking to expand this business. Currently I have five computers and would like to increase this number as my clients have been increasing daily.

My Business

I like computers since my childhood and i knew one day i will be able to have a cyber of my own. This service is very important now that we are moving to a digital era.
I chose this kind of business because it has a many clients from typing, browsing, e-mailing among others. . Customers are away coming in and doing their stuff and during holidays children and always there. My biggest challenge is that i have only five computers which cannot serve all my customers.
Sometimes network is down and forces me to to use modem which is expensive.
My business is located near a colleges and this adds me a lot of advantage because i type their assignments and projects which add me more profit.
When i get this loan i will add more computers and improve my work station. I also tend to provide other services like scanning and photocopy to boost services offered to my clients

Loan Proposal

The loan will help me in buying more computers after some computers were destroyed by city council officers
