If not God be on our side! Being born in this continent is a complicated life to face,challage and overcome.As for my case I was born and raised in village in machakos county s.e of capital city Nairobi,mukunike village.having born here my parent depedent on casual labour from locals for survival.And life was already complicated for me.I attended local school @ age of seven having in mind that had to kill myth that it illiterate rules.Through hard work I made it to high school.All family life,loaded me to save them,so I went to capital city Nairobi to try my luck after form four and I got a security guard job.life became difficult for me because my expenditure we more than my earning,so I decided to venture in business though I had no capital I sold households I had moved to eldoret to be a hawker and my entrepreneurial journey began.
After securing a security job,earning just six thousand a month,I.e sixty dollars a month.expectation from home were too high.I then sold household items I had worth 100$,move with my friend to eldoret for a hawking business.in 2013 I had accumulated capital and I opened a shop in eldoret town for a second clothing business,the business flourished from 100$ to earn 1000$ a month,due to increased demand for new born clothes,men & women wear more so sport shoes because this a city of athletes,I sought capital to expand my business but in vain.I also needed school fees for my two young sisters who are joining collage and a brother joining high school I sought capital more cash to expand my business,that's when I heard of zidisha from a friend,online francise loan offers with low interest rates which will blossom my business as a young entrepreneur while am eying a clothing mall because my dreams are valid.proverbs 26;1 expecting snow in summer and rain in dry season makes more sense.
Since my business is on the side of making profit and I want increase customers by offering them good and quality products from my outlet,so am requesting this loan to purchase ladies & new born clothes to add to stock I have,this means when I have more client I will be able to increase sales thus more profit and I have hence be stable to create a job opportunity to youth here who are jobless.thanks to however will fund my loan request.
