About Me

I am the fourth born in a family of five, i have three sisters. i grew up in umoja estate in in nairobi city. I went to Moyo accademy primary school and later went to St. lawrence highschool nziyu, Makueni and attained a Grade C-.
Due to lack of money i was not able to attend college and so i joined my sister to her workshop to help her eletrical rewinders and electronics accecories. i gained skill on how to repair welding machines and rewinding!
I was earning some money at every end of the month and i saved the money for i wanted to have a business of my own. I love beauty and cosmetics so i was longing to have enough money to start my business.
working in that workshop was not easy but i needed money so i applied all my effort and knowledge to make sure i deliver and make my own money!
I Kiambu county we have beautiful nature n people are upto fashion and beauty. am not married and i dont have kids, when i got married and have kids i will already have a firm business that will ensure my kids has what they need and prepair their future.
i love swimming, dancing to blues music , R&b and travelling.

My Business

After some years working with my sister at Betco Electrical rewinders, i saved a capital that enabled me to start a boutique. Around where i worked for my sister, i was inspired by the beauty shops around because they brought the newest clothes in the market and they make a high sale!
So as soon as the money was enough i started first with ladys wear. I noticed that men do not by clothes often so i started with lays wear then later bring Mens wear too. I chose this kind of business because fashion is on and up every day. To start this busines it cost me a capital of 100,000ksh amd i make a profit of 25,000ksh per month. Am using my profits to reinvestment in growing my business and home improvements.

Loan Proposal

I will buy new african wear for ladys which is in demand and will increase sales profits this holiday. This will make people from my business area to have fast access to the new fashion african wear without having to go very far. I expect an increase of atleast 30% on my normal income after adding the new stock.

    Thanks so much for your support, Zidisha and lenders. The loan really helped me a lot in increasing the stock of my boutique. I had a small difficuty on the repayment schedule, but I have been advised on how to manage installments and time. I am also happy that I have fully repaid the loan. Thank you.

    Hello Susan. Can you get in touch with Zidisha to reduce your payments to a more manageable level? That is better than letting yourself get behind with your payments, which can make it harder to get future loans.
    God bless you,
    Wendy
