Hello great lenders. I am Lucy Machira. I come from Nyeri County, Kenya, at Tetu sub-county from a village called Gititu. I later went to Gilgil where i have been working as a businesswoman. I am currently living in Gilgil, Nakuru Subcounty. My passion has been farming and i have longed to have my own shamba where i will produce vegetable for my family and later on start a business for transporting kales in nearby big market like Gikomba and Chaka. I have enough produce now and i am looking for a loan from you inorder to transport my products as per. I have got the information about you from a friend of mine you have help a lot.
I now own a shamba and i have been farming kales and some fruits likes pawpaw, mangoes, avocadoes but i mainly dealt with the kales. I have been selling my products to a nearby market which is Gilgil market and also to individuals who own small grocery shops. I wish to further my business by transporting them to Gikomba and Chaka but at the moment i have no enough money for transportation.
My farm is located in Gitare village here in Gilgil but takes my produce to Gilgil market on Wednesdays and Saturdays.

The benefit this manure will bring to me is great and i am targeting and profit of 70% increase from my current situation. It will enable produce more and reach much more customers.
