About Me

My is Martin Otieno I live in Kitale Trans-nzoia county. I was brought up in Kisumu, Nyanza region. I am the first born in a family of 2 siblings. My parents died in a road accident when I was only five years and so my brother and I were left as orphans. My uncle took care of us, so we moved from Kisumu to Kitale.
I managed to finish my primary and secondary education and I passed very well. I could not join college because my uncle had his own children who were still schooling. By Gods grace well wishers and neighbors did a fundraising and I went to college where I studied electrical and electronics studying part time, during the other time I worked as a cleaner in a supermarket in Kitale town where the little salary I got I used to pay fees for my younger brother, and save for my studies. In college I attained a diploma in electrical and electronics. After graduating from college I was promoted from a cleaner to a sales representative in electrical and electronic department. I later started my own business of electronics repair.
My hobbies are traveling, socializing, listening to music and reading.

My Business

My business is located along Kitale, Kapenguria highway next to Kapenguria bus station. It deals with electronics repair such as television, mobile phones, and radios. The business is ideal because this location is populated and there is no competition. Having necessary knowledge in this business am able to handle different kinds of customers. I get $300 every month, I use the profit to pay electricity bill, rent, re-invest and pay fees for my brother.
My dream and aim is to expand this business to different parts of the town.

Loan Proposal

Hello zidisha, i thank you so much for raising my previous loan.I hope that u gona consider and raise this too.I have now decided to add a Mpesa business into my shop.This is because many of my customers always suggest that I add Mpesa because there is no other Mpesa shop around and i think this is a very good advantage to me.If you give me the money,i will use 15$ to paint the shop a green color ,5$ for advertisement and 30$ to register with the company.I will also have to get a worker to help me so that when i repair and sell electronics he also operate the Mpesa.Thanks.
