Am a Kenyan citizen aged 30 years old,born in a poor family in western Kenya.my father was a peasant farmer whom we depended on for all our basic needs and education.due to our family background and financial problems, my education ended at o-level.iwas employed in hardware as casual worker loading and offloading of goods where I managed to support my parents and the rest of the family and saved some money and laterone small hardware business.
I operate a small retail hardware goods like cement,nails,ironsheets,steel metals, farmtools and plumbing equipments. Am located in a small growing town where by many people are putting up structures and also they depend on small scale farming thus the demand for the goods is very high and yet am unable to sustain my customers due inadequate capital to increase my stock.from my profits I provide basic needs to my family and education for my two children and I also provide for other three orphan children s whose parents passed on.
I come from a farming region so I want to add my stock by buying farm equipments eg jembes,pangas, slash, sprinkler, pesticides and etc.This is because at now most of the people around are small scale farmers and now that they are planting the need of this equipments.
Due to inadequate funds I am unable to reach the demands of my customers.due to luck of jobs at least when I get the money,it will allow me to add some stock and that means I will be capable of employing one person to me in selling.
