About Me

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.

My 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.

Loan Proposal

I will add the stock in my shop. I buy equipments like jembe ,slasher, pesticides.This will help me sustain my family especially in providing the basic need and also pay school fees for my children. I do expect at least 70 Kenyan shillings profit from each item I buy.
