I am Millicent Anyango, I was born in 1984 and brought up in rural village of Kanyada in Homa Bay County. I was born the 1st born in a family of two boys and two girls. I am a mother of four children and married.
My parent's were loving, caring though very poor as they were practising peasant farming. I grew up helping my parents to bring up my siblings. Having completed my high school, I got married and marriage life was not easy, since my husband didn't have gainful employment so I had to start a small business to help in meeting the family financial needs especially education of our children.
Mbita community is a loving and caring society. Women are encouraged to support their spouses. I like helping the needy in society through associations in my free time.
My business entails selling of all types of clothes like men's wear, ladies wear and children wear i also sell mattresses among others. I choose this business since Kenyan people are fashionable and like spending much money in design wear. This business will always be on demand because people cannot live without clothing which is a basic human need. I buy my stock from manufacturers and suppliers who give me at very minimal cost because of purchasing in bulk. This has enabled me sell to my customers at a very affordable price and hence conquering my competitors who sell them very expensive.
The quality of my clothes, competitive price and good customer care has made customers to flock in my business daily and has contributed much in rising of my profit margin everyday. I re-invest my profit to business, part paying school fees and meeting house hold needs while the rest is saved for future projects.
I am seeking a loan of KES 9,526 to enable me buy new clothing materials to produce school uniforms. With the new capital injection, the business will be able to grow and expand to help me serve the five new primary & secondary schools are my community that are in dire need of clothing so much especially school uniforms. I look forward to improving my business income with 20% and inject the profit back to help sustain the business as I expand.
