About Me

I was born in a family of 6 children due to poverty I'm only child who managed to go to secondary due to good performance,unfortunately my father passed on as soon as I finished form four, being 4th born in our family and only educated I had no other alternative other than to look for a job to rescue my mother whose work was to sell charcoal to the market, I got a job in one of busy electrical shops as sales man,my skill s were high due to physics and commerce know how from high school .due to good interaction and honest to my clients,they advised me to open my own business they will promote me!

My Business

From my little salary of ksh 8000 I managed to save 50 thousands and 10 goats, after working for 5years have started my electrical shop business but the challenge I'm facing is finance,goods are in demand but low supply

Project Proposal

I will use the money to boost my stock of electrical supplies items. These includes, bulbs, bulb holders and cables. This will increase my sales volumes hence give me more income.

    I am grateful for the loan that you gave me. It enabled me to get more stock thus increasing my sales and profit. I was able to get through the tough year of 2020 due to the solid foundation that I laid with Zidisha funds.
