About Me

Greetings to All,

My names are sharon jepkemoi sang, kenyan by birth, and i work and live in kenya.I'm a first born in a family of four, born and and brought up in rift valley where our parents were pastrolist and farmers.
My mum passed on when i was a young girl , which exposed me to alot of hardship i had to work hard both in school and society because my siblings were depending on me as a first born.
After finishing college i was employed as a sales person where i have gained alot of experience in sales and started doing my part time job, which as enabled me to raise my family and also give back to society.

My Business

I do farming, of which i borrowed the capital from zidisha , and i thank God because i have been able to grow my business day by day and also use my profits for upkeep of my family, and the society at large.

Loan Proposal

I will use the funding to buy more stocks in my wines and spirits , since business is now picking up , since we do sales of take away alot , because customers are not allowed to stay out for long because of the curfew.
I also do a side hussle of selling farm products, which is selling alot despite the pandemc.

Income Source

It's true most business are not oparational, and i thank God because the lockdown was removed and hotel industry is now oparating.
And the wines and spiritsa nd farm products have been selling despite the pandemic.
I promise to pay in time.
