About Me

I am a married man with seven children of whom 2 are in primary school and 3 in secondary school. The other two still rely on me though they are not in school. My land is inheritance from my parents. I have studied until class seven. I obtain my goods from KFA to improve my farming. I use the profits to pay school fees and maintain my family since I am the sole bread winner.

My Business

maize is the staple food in our region and our country as a whole.beans are the most reliable source of proteins and with the fast growing population most people don't have their own farms, thus rely on us for their food.my food is well grown and taken care of and i relate well with my customers. i also give them extra maize in case of bumper harvest and i have been able to maintain them.in a month i get an income of kshs 33250.after withdrawing all the uses i get a profit of kshs 13250 a month.in case of heavy rains as those we have experienced this year, my harvests will reduce. pests and diseases also increase production costs.

Loan Proposal
