Dear lenders, I therefore humbly request that you support me just as you did the other time and am sure that with your support I will make a stride. Thanks in advance hoping that you will consider my sincere humble request dear ones. Yours faithfully, Milika Akosa Shitela. Regards.

New stock for my mutumba clothes business. mitumba is a Kenyan name for second-hand clothes, handbags, school bags, and shoes. A mitumba business is one of the most lucrative businesses you can start with little capital. The sale of mitumba has changed many people’s lives, especially the youth who fail to secure formal employment. Middle-class Kenyans refer to second-hand products as “okoa jahazi” (save the yacht) since they are quite affordable and budget-friendly. All you need to do is play your cards right. Here is how to start mitumba business in Kenya.

The funds I procured last time round were channeled to purchasing inventory for my business- mobile phone airtime. I was able to reinvest the proceeds within the time I had picked to pay back and consequently grew my capital base before I had to payback what was lent to my business. This grew my capital base by an extra 22%. My children seamlessly attended school this last year and are going back for the beginning of the school year in September. My neighborhood is cool, green and ideal for tea farming.

Solomon · Nairobi, Kenya

I must take this opportunity to profoundly thank our financiers for making the funds available for progressively growing our business, enabling us to buy a deep freezer, a meat mincer, and moving our eatery to a more spacious building. All these have resulted in growing customer numbers and sales. Thank you very much indeed. Now we are looking to buy a chiller to keep bottled water, soft drinks and fresh juices cool amid the sometimes scorching heat of the day. A cool drink amidst a hot day can be quite refreshing, and we are responding to our customers request in this regard. The chiller we have identified for purchase is a 150 L Von VARV 15 Das Vertical Cooler, with an internal capacity of 150 litres, available from Hot Point Appliances Ltd for Kshs 53,995. This is one more restaurant appliance that will help us quench exceedingly well the thirst of our cherished customers. Thank you.

I however still need more stock since the target market is vast and the current stock in still low in terms of serving all my customers. I'll use this loan to boost my stock so that I can increase my sales, get more profit and reach a higher customer base. Pls I need a better loan of 100$ to achieve this target.
