My Business

My Business is a agribusiness ,I provide fresh tomatoes and green vegetable to the people that are around and in market places.
These goods are so important here because at where I live there is a market for such good and there is grocery fresh vegetables therefore they are in great demand .
I chose this kind of business because i stay in my own farm and there is an ample space where I can grow farm fresh produce for the market .

My typical cost is 20,000Kshs and the revenue is 30,000Kshs per month.

I use 120,000Kshs in School fees for my children.+
20,000Kshs for reinvestment in growing the business.
4,000Kshs for home improvement .
2,000Kshs for my sick father.Therefore this Business is paying and I wan to expand so that I may have more income to enable me to support.

Loan Proposal

I wish to apply for a loan of 55950 ( $ 578 ) in order to enable me to purchase a water pump that i would use in irrigating my vegetable enterprises as follows;
1)1 diesel water pump @$637
Due to persistent climatic change in this region the rains have become more and more erratic thus unreliable for commercial ventures .
