I do run a small clothing shop at Kasarani Nairobi,
I specialize in second-hand baby clothes, toys, and kids stuff.
I have run the shop for the last four years. Alongside clothing shop I supply kienyeji and turkey eggs. Turkey eggs are in high demand as well as turkey meet in urban areas. most people are opting to eat white meat than red meat. I do receive orders from hotels and individuals. I make the suppliers on early mornings before I open the clothing shop. With these loan I will purchase more eggs for hotel supply.
I have been supplying eggs for six months now and I have seen a promising success in the business.
Eggs are very common breakfast food in Kenya. In every five homes, three take eggs for breakfast. I buy a turkey egg at Kshs 50 and sell at Kshs 60 making a profit of Kshs 10 on each egg. On a good day I do sell 8 trays but on a low season about 3. With enough supply I will be making good profit and more sales. Am looking forward for a successful funding that will grow my business higher.
Loan requested will cater for more stock. Learning materials in form of toys are getting popular and interesting, and they are also easy for any child to play and learn with. The price of a bale is not consistent depending on demand and supply but its around $80 par bale. Children playing with clean toys are healthier. It's beneficial to spare our kids from dirty environments especially in urban areas and play at home with clean toys. Am looking forward to a positive funding that will be really supportive in increasing my sales thus making more profit. Aiming to profit more to send my son to a good international school.
