About Me

Hello zidisha, I have heard alot about zidisha and how amazing it is. My names are Bernard Kibete, I am married and blessed with a baby girl. I was born raised and educated in Muranga county in kiharu division. After highschool I joined College in the city of nairobi where I graduated with a diploma in electrical engineering.
I got employed in an electrical firm where I worked for two years, in 2007 I quit employment to persue my passion in business.
I started small, selling electrical applliences from a make shift platform on the roadside, then I was determined to open a shop within a year.I planned well and in a years time, I was able to achieve my objective. My shop is located in kitengela town in a busy street. My hobbies are jogging, going to gym and part time actor in the local commedy programmes. I love people and making friends.

My Business

My business mainly deals with electricals and electronics for sale.I buy goods from wholesale stores and retail them to my clients.This involves, bulbs, solar panels, solar bulbs,electrical cables, lamp holders, and general electrical appliances.The cost of bulbs range from $5 to$10, solar panels from $50 to $150 and expect a profit of between 50% to 75%. Being an urban centre, there is high demand for my products and can do replacements once or twice a week.My profits goes to basic need, home keeping and Rent paying and school fees.

Loan Proposal

Dear Lenders, thank you so much for your continued support, My first loan has helped my business to grow by 30%, I still need your assistance this time I want to introduce new stocks of led TVs and Antenas, I will buy 4pcs LED TVs each @ $50 and sell each @ $80, this will give me a profit of $30 each, a total of $90. I predict to do replacements on weekly basis targeting a profit of $ 270 every month. This will help my business to grow by over 30%. I want to thank you in advance as I await this much valued funds, God bless!

      Hi Tom925,
      The sale of the panels is gradual. The maxmum I have ever sold is 10 solar panels per month, different capacities. You seem interested about solar panels, have you dealt with them?
      regards,
      Bernard.

    I attempted to loan to you but when I pressed the "Lend" button the next screen showed "Whoops, there was a problem" or something like that. It showed you % funded go up but did not subtract from my balance. Appears to be a software or site problem. Please report so I can loan to you.
