My name is John Gakonya , I was born and brought up in Nakuru town in a family of four,two boys and two girls I being the first born.My parents separated when we were still young and hence my mother took the burden of taking care of us.I went to menengai High school and by the grace of God I graduated although there was hardship raising fees from selling charcoal at umoja center.After High school I started a stationary business and typesetting since I learned computer study in school.This business enables me help my mother and my younger siblings.
During my free time I like to socialize with friends, go swimming and reading.
In my business I deal with selling stationary and typesetting.This services is necessary since there are schools in the center which act as my mean customers. Meanwhile I make $300 per month after paying all the bills I get a profit of $100.I use the profits for expansion and helping my family especially my younger siblings.
When given this loan i will buy photocopy papers to add to the stock i already have.
i will buy:
1 BOX OF PHOTOCOPY PAPERS @ KSH 2000/=($20)
This will benefit me very much because with this increase in stock my profit margin will also increase by 15%.
Where my shop is located there are institutions hence photocopy work does very well.
I will use the profits to pay monthly bills and also pay school fees for my younger siblings.Am also planning to re-invest part of this money gained from the profits.
Thank you Zidisha community and may God bless you especially the lenders in particular for allowing me pursue my dream which is to become a big entrepreneur in the world.
