About Me
Am called Elijah Chebii, a father and a husband of lovely lady by the name Beth Wanjiru.I live in shabab area, Nakuru county, Kenya.I finished secondary school as my highest level of education and I was employed in certain butchery as a sales man. am from a humble background and therefore parents were not capable taking me join college although I had passed very well.I was getting a small salary and therefore I had no option.Later I opened my own butchery with the little savings that I had.The business picked very well and I managed to even employee some one to assist me in running the business. The earnings that I get from the butchery enable me to improve the my business
My Business
My business primarily sells beef and soup only.My business is located in Kaptembwo centre near the market place.The demand is very high in my butchery since their is no single day that clients complain about my service, I always serve my customers fairly and therefore attracting more customers. My customers prefer my business to the competition because my business is always clean and neat, I have curtsy to my customers and am faster when serving my customers.This business has a lot of profit because I have been doing it for the last five years without changing my mind.Risks that encounter are minimal although I need a weighing machine and a refrigerator for keeping meet to avoid it from going bad.
Loan Proposal
Dear Lenders,
Thanks for the opportunity to become a Zidisha member, this loan together with my other savings will be used to buy a meat mincing machine to be used at my butchery shop so as to meet the demands of customers who are lately coming for the minced meat. I know for sure Zidisha will help me in future to buy other equipment like a fridge for my business.
The locally made machine is sold at $ 66.
With this machine I project to increase my monthly profit sales by about $70.
I will appreciate your timely assistance.
Many thanks.
