I was born in Karachuonyo in Homabay County and am part of a family of eight members of which I am the eldest son. I went to Gendia Primary then I finally completed my four at Otok Secondary School. Later I eventually joined Nairobi Aviation for a Diploma Course in Information communication technology. I also have an acceptable level in the field of computing. I have years of experience in the field of technology. I opened a cyber café in the last one year and needed to expand it a bit.My hobbies are playing football,socializing,making friends,repair and maintenance of computer,selling computer accessories
Computer repair and maintenance in Nairobi and its environs is a growing business since a lot of people are not computer literate and more people nowadays are using laptops and phones to access information and do jobs both online and offline, at the moment I do computer repair, there’s growing demand for spare parts and computer accessories, used computers, cheap laptops and do require repair services.
Even though the service market is growing, I can see a huge increase in the sales part of it and that's where I mostly would intend to be because its a bit less risky in terms of finances, rather than think of service based revenue business, I’m thinking of it in terms of doubling my capital as many times as possible through pushing sales online and offline countrywide.
At the moment I need to buy a a photocopier that will cost me $940. This machine will enable my business to raise enough money through photocopy to generate additional income that I will use to expand my business and service the loan.
My cybercafé business is doing well so far in Kayole-Nairobi. The computer accessories I acquired through zidisha has really helped in providing my customers with reliable services. I managed to repay my first loan fully and I would like your help again in increasing purchasing a fridge that will help me increase the profit at the cybercafé since so many customers always asks for cold beverages. I would also like to have a variety of drinks so as to take care of taste and preference of my customers.
My main aim for requesting for a loan from zidisha is to buy a fridge for my cold drinks business. From the savings I have made from the cybercafe, given a loan will help me in buying the fridge which costs 500 USD at the moment I can be able to raise 245USD. Acquiring the fridge will help me improve on my business in the following ways; have more cold drinks for my customers hence increase of my returns. Therefore I will be able to put more stock to my business then further it will give me hope for expanding my business to more location.
