Thank you.To begin with,My names are Esther Wairimu Irungu.born in Nyahururu town by Mr. & Mrs Mbogo.I am the third born in our sibling of seven.

In my early age,I went to kindergarten for my baby class,later i joined Leshau preparatory school for my class 1-8,until i did my K.C.P.E.I did not perform as per my parents expectations in my final examination,thus making me to have an alternative in my education.After a year's time,I joined Nyahururu hair & beauty college for the beauty course.It took four months and i was having a full knowledge on all hair styles.

Later,I got married and my husband didn't want me being in employment,which made him to buy for me 350 chicks from Ken chick ltd for me to take care of them for our daily livelihood.I brooded them until they matured and they now laying eggs and I normally sells the eggs to customers.Through having me in poultry business I have been supplementing my husband's income with the profit i get from the daily sales to make our family living standards desirable.Thank you.

Taking care of poultry is my passion.Making rearing poultry a lifetime business.The chicken rearing business has for the last one year a source of our livelihood for my family.This has been good as all my hens are laying eggs at the moment making me getting a lot of new orders all the times.

In my poultry house,I have 350 mature egg-laying birds and I normally supply the produce at the nearest market at a retail price.I always gives them the layers marsh mixed with fish pellets which are the best in quality eggs production.I also after every month administer to them a soluble multi-vitamins & calcium supplement to prevent against cannibalism and of good and high production.In every three months period i normally de-worms all my birds .This has been a challenge to most of my competitors in the area,and I normally gets the best results.

The demand of eggs has been growing higher compared to my daily supply,making me to look for an alternative to get financial resources at Zidisha Microfinance.The funds will help me in purchasing bulk layers marsh,multi-vitamins nutrients for a best and quality eggs production.

The goodness with Zidisha loans is that they are offering their loans at a 0% interest rates,therefore making my business to expand more with their reliable loans in the near future.

With the Zidisha loan,I am intending to purchase bulk layers marsh feeds,multi-vitamins supplements for my layers hens in readiness to beat the ever growing market and the eggs demand in the city.It is my humble request that the lending panel will support my loan.I am looking forward for a future sole supplier of eggs in the entire region.Thank you for the kind generosity.
