My Business
I am running a computer and accessories enterprise accompanied with printing and photocopying activities under the name Jelani Technologies. My business is located at Karatina Market Mall Building adjacent to Post Bank Kenya.

Printing and Photocopying involves walk-ins’ officials and college and university students who come for printing, scanning and photocopying their documents.
My customer base includes clients with official purposes like payslips, license renewals, income tax returns, visa and passport applications, vehicle registrations and transfers among others. While I offer university students services like Higher Education Loans Board application, online students registration and printing services.
Loan Proposal
Lately in our area we have been experiencing power outages which have affected our business and our farming. Lately I bought an incubator so that I could sell chick to upcoming farmers, when the lights goes off it can withstand for 48hours (2days) from there if the power is not back i happen to loose many of my fertilized eggs. The last time there was a power blackout, a week ago I lost 240eggs which was a big loss to a startup. The generator will also help me worm my breeders and leave the old ways of using tin with charcoals (makeshift Jikos) which sometimes causes death to some of the chicks due to burns. Using this Jiko is also dangerous because if the charcoal falls on the sawdust which we normally use as bedding's it can cause fire and burn the whole place.
I am seeking a loan facility of Kes19,000 to purchase a generator which cost Kes59,999 of which the balance i will use personal savings
Regards
