I started my business in order to earn a living and make ends meet. i am employed but i still do not get enough because i need to grow in life. with my earnings i pay rent, i do shopping, i buy mens shirt & t-shirt at a wholesale price and sell retail as well as pay my kids school fees.

Once i get the loan i will expand my business and buy more rice to meet the demand of my customers,since the demand is very high because rice is the local food here in Mombasa.I will buy more bags to increase more stock an then get more high returns which will make my business to grow.It will benefit by creating job opportunities for my local people.I will highly appreciate when the loan will be disbursed to me.
