I'm a christian, married and we have been blessed with one beautiful baby boy of 3 moths. I live in London in Nakuru county. I have O' Level Certificate and I'm also computer literate.I started my business by moving from one market to another in the name of selling my mituma clothes.as at now I own my store where I sale bales of this clothes in wholesale prices.i personally thank God for this and also friends for their support.they are many challenges one being high interest rates in banks and many procedures involved.

I sell babies and ladies second hand clothes commonly known as mitumba. They are grade A or grade 1 of clothes and these are fondly called 'camera'. This is because they are slightly worn clothes and are also near to being new clothes. I sell the clothes from my house and i also do hawking of the clothes in the neighborhood or the city center.In a month i make a profit of Kshs 15000 equating to Kshs 180,000 annually.

I intend to use the loan to purchase 2 bales of second-hand clothes for babies at $65 each. Stock is an important aspect of my business because it helps in maintaining my current clientele, while also attracting new customers. My family is entirely dependent on the money I make from the second-hand clothes business; and as such, the loan will go a long way towards ensuring that the business flourishes. Thanks
