About Me
I was born in 1974 in mt. Elgon area that is now .
I went to Primary School between 1978 to 1986 in burnt forest primary school .
In Secondary School I went between 1987 to 1993 in Kisii .I am married to one wife with 0ne child who is in nursery school.
After High school a got a casual job with world vision kenya and I worked with them for2 years.Their after out of my savings that I got during employment I used it to develop a business (poultry farming) with my wife.
My Business
The Poultry farm has been in existence for over two years . We supply live chicken to the neighbors and also eggs . Due to consistency since we started we have a stable customer base.
The business is profitable because there is high demand for white meat and especially the local chicken which is what we are keeping and also the eggs which are preferred by most people.
The main challenges are diseases and feed which are very expensive especially when the birds are few in number.
My typical monthly cost of running the business is approximately US$300 while gross profit or income before these expenses is usually approximately US$480.
I believe that the funding will come because if I get it now I will be able to buy many birds in readiness for the market.
