My name is Brenda Koech, a business lady currently working and living in Kericho Town, Kenya . I am from a small family of three consisting of my mother, my older brother and myself. My family currently resides in Rongai, Nakuru.
I received my primary school education in Kericho and after successfully completing my primary education, i attended an all girls high school in Nairobi for my secondary education. I later enrolled at a local university to pursue a Business degree in Marketing.
I recently started a new business venture selling liquid detergents and disinfectants.
I usually send for raw materials from Nairobi, measure and mix them myself, package and then sell them around Kericho town.
I pack the detergents in recycled plastic containers of 500ml and 1ltr but sometimes I get orders of 5, 10 and 20ltrs which usually go to offices and institutions around Kericho town.
With the funds from Zidisha, i hope to finally complete my University education. I had enrolled at the University of Nairobi to pursue a degree in Commerce but due to lack of funds i had to drop out while in my third year.
This current semester requires 500 dollars in fees. We have managed to raise 400 dollars from the proceeds from the retail shop we run with my mother. I hope to raise the difference through the loan from Zidisha.
