My name is Kirui Richard. I come from humble family in Narok county. My childhood life was full of challenges since both parents passed away and I was brought up by my elder brother. I completed my primary education where I passed well and joined a high school in Bomet county. After completing high school I joined Egerton university where I studied diploma in animal health. I graduated with credit.
I managed to complete my education because my brother usually encouraged me.
Then another challenge encounter me. This was how to start an agrovet shop. I was assisted by my brother with only 100000/. The amount did not managed to stock my shop to the intent of my customers.
I come from a place where people like keeping livestock but the problem is that there is no enough capital to certify all this farmers. If given enough capital I will help my customers to get their items.
My hobby is to visit my treated patients and see them recovery well.
In my agrovets I normally sell seeds; minerals; acaricides and dewormers to farmers. I also went outside and do treatment of sick animals where I get paid for the services. The items I usually sell are demand because livestock here is the source of livelihood to people living around.
In fact I decided to engage on agrovet business because it is my specialization.
The cost incurred in my business is payment for county business license; electricity bill and veterinary inspection fee.
The profit I get I normally use to increase stock.
I will buy vaccines for FMD. This will help me save cattle in my area and also increase income from vaccination program. This will ensure my family is getting good care from the income and community will be happy.
