I am a young Kenyan entrepreneur running cyber cafe at kakamega-Kambiri Junction, other than cybercafe i Train different kinds of people who want to know more about computers, i also sell computer related devices in my cafe. I have a motive that one day i will grow to a bigger institution that provides all computer needs (an ICT centre in the Village)
After doing information communication technology (ICT) in the college the year 2013, i worked as a cybercafé attendant in a very busy cybercafé in our city Nairobi where i acquired skills and experience that i decided to open my own cybercafé in my nearby Location. I used the money i had saved from my job and bought 1pc and Hp Printer DeskJet 1510 and started my new business. I do computer services which include; photocopying, typesetting, Laminating, Binding, Photo Printing, Scanning and printing. I also repair handsets (phones) by flashing codes using master code software and offer internet services in the village where I was brought up. I was motivated to offer these computer services because the people here do not know more about computers and they travel long distance to get computer services. I also offer computer lessons and teach the young and other people who wish to acquire computer knowledge. Am planning to expand and be a full ICT center that provides ICT consultancy to the society in my Location. I am happy to know Zidisha from a friend who has benefited from it for being there for people like us who has vision but no capital to start implementing. With such loans I will easily buy more computer equipment s that I need in my cyber cafe. At the moment I have only three computers and a deskjet hp printer but I hope Zidisha will help me get more computers to add in my room.
I intent to bring in a new service of selling drinks and snacks to my clients who come to my cafe, i also wish to increase my stock by adding other computer related services like; selling of books, pens School Stationery and other services.
