About Me

I am Boniface Unyagi age 33 years I live and work in Embu Kenya.First born in a family of 4 Siblings. Now i have a wife and 2 children 7yrs and 2 yrs old. I started my fish hotel business in January 2017 upto date with the help of contribute from my family.For the First 3 months i faced a lot of challenges mainly finance. 6 months later the business improved as more customers got attracted because of the good quality of fish and the preparation proccess. Right now am facing the challenge of expansion that why i have come to you for help. It is a business that has a future. I have 3 employees so far. (I intend to open more branches as time goes by). I Hope through ZIDISHA I will achieve my goals. Thank you in advance to all Lenders that will be with me in this journey of success. Be Blessed.

My Business

My business involves selling fish, at the moment i sell tilapia,mudfish,mackerel and nileperch in future i intend to bring in other fish species. I sell raw and cooked. It is a fish point, a small room where customers are served to eat or they can get them take away.

The business is a success since there is a big demand for fish in the area, more than i can supply. I mean i have ready customers . I chose the business since my mother has been doing it since2002 that where i have been learning the skills .My mother's fish supplying business has been paying for my primary & college fees and other siblings too.
So I love what am doing. Am in the right job

Of recent the my fish business profits has enabled me start i small retail shop (Feb 2018) for my wife.

It is a business that has a good future.

Loan Proposal

This new loan is to boost my business 65% i mean adding more fish stock and other varieties . Then 20% to boost my wife's retail shop (adding sugar, rice and oil). Then 15% pay my daughter's school fee balance. 65% of the profit after selling fish will be invested in the business again while 35% will cater for my family needs.
