About Me

i Jackson njoroge and i come from a very humble family background of a single parent with the main source of income coming from farming i learned entrepreneural skills and a beginning of a passion to one day venture into business. in my first employement i worked in a foodstore where i a grew i passion a starting a grocery business of my own. Having acquired enough skill it was now time to start my own business which i can attest that i love to do what i do. Apart from bussiness i am also a parttime student studying Accounting and Finance which have really helped me sharpen my entrepreneurial skill.

My Business

i am currently engaged in a cereals, groceries and foodstuffs which i started three years ago from some saving i had accrued from employment. previously i had grown a keen interest of starting a grocery business but i could not secure enough capital to start one. i had to start with what was at had, both my savings and those from my wife. though a small start but i had a spirited passion to start what i could actually be my own boss.
At first it wasn't easy but with great zeal and passion i have been able to go through difficult moments to make these business been on its feet and running. four years now still moving, still focused, still growing i can say it was the best decision i made, though not without hurdles especially on cash flows for the growing demands of my customers.
basically the business is doing well and any additional funds to my business will go along way for expansion and been able to repay all loans that will be injected to it.

Loan Proposal

i will be using this loan to buy green groceries which are the main delicacies and staple for the community where i run my business, meaning i will be able to capitalize on high sales ratio and high profit margin due to the high demand of the green groceries. i believe just like the previous loans these loan will go along way for the growth of my business.
