About Me

I'm a passionate entrepreneur who continually seeks for opportunities for growth.
I chose the food sector owing to the fact that food is non seasonal and a mandatory item on the family budget.
Currently, I'm doing farming with an aim of combining farming and agricultural products supply in the near future.

I'm seeking a partnership with lenders from the Zidisha forum for now and in the future expansion of this promising business.

My Business

Currently, I have diversified into farming. Agriculture is an evergreen industry and is the backbone of my country's economy.


People must eat irrespective of the economic conditions of the time.

Peas have a huge demand in Kenyan towns especially in Nairobi and Mombasa. I have started farming this economically sustainable crop in Nyandarua County which is one of the main peas-producing counties due to the cold climate that suits the crop. Since there are many farmers here, market is readily available because resellers are guaranteed a supply of peas all year round.

Nyandarua is also moderately populated and this ensures availability of agricultural land for lease.

I have the technical know-how and the passion for success in Agriculture. I hope to utilise the funding I get from zidisha to gradually expand my farming enterprise.

Project Proposal

I plan to lease my farming land on a longer term basis. Landlords can easily rent out the land to a better paying or preferred farmer once the season looks promising.

To allow me make better plans such as applying manure, I need a guarantee that the land would be available to me for at least two years. Such a guarantee will only be possible if I lease the land for a longer period.
I intend to use the funds as follows:

2 acres of land @ Kenya Shillings 20000 each per year.
2 acres ×20000×2 years=80000.

Thank you for your consideration and generous backing.
