About Me
I wish to pass my gratitude to the lenders who supported me with my previous loan which went a long way to boost '‘THE PAT’s BEAUTY CENTRE’. The business has expanded and we have contracted one more employee who is helping us with 'NAIL ART'. Besides stocking the beauty products, ‘THE PAT’s BEAUTY CENTRE’ have gone a ladder higher by introducing Nail Art services to our esteemed clients. We are doing the nail art at a subsidised rate for the Jomo Kenyatta University Students who form a base of clientelle.
My Business
I wish to thank the Zidisha team for their previous loan extended to me that I have just completed repaying. This amount helped us to boost our stock at the 'THE PAT’s BEAUTY CENTRE’. We are optimistic that given more loans by Zidisha community our business will prosper. We have a two years plan that we have laid down. At the end of the two years it is expected that THE PAT’s BEAUTY CENTRE’ will have expanded further.
Loan Proposal
As our motto states ‘VARIETY with QUALITY’, we wish to take the business a notch higher by stocking handbags to match with earings for our clients. We seek to achieve this by requesting for another loan from Zidisha. We have identified a supplier of handbags at 'Eastleigh Market" in Nairobi who will supply good quality handbags which will suit our clients.
At ‘THE PAT’s BEAUTY CENTRE’ (The business name) our motto is ‘VARIETY with QUALITY’. As the business blossoms, we are still increasing stock using our net profit which is currently at 92USD after paying USD33 rent, 5USD electricity bill and 22USD transport. I will commit to pay the loan with part of the net profit and use the remaining to plough it back to the business. The business has been in operation since December 2013 and the trend of profits has been encouraging. It is our sincere hope that if given consecutive loans offered at Zidisha, we shall be able to achieve our motto. As the business progresses, we are hoping to expand more and eventually open a beauty products supermarket in Juja town which will be one of its kind in the locality. ‘The Pats Beauty Centre’ aims at being a supermarket of ot its kind taking care of the modern woman by providing her with ‘classy complementary looks’ and outfits
The beauty market among women is a venture that is long term as women continue having the urge to look good and more presentable. A well dressed lady can only complement this with her jewelry which we offer at THE PAT’s BEAUTY CENTRE.
