My name is John Wanyoike. I was born in 1985 in Naivasha Kenya. I went to Milimani Primary School located in Naivasha. I completed my primary school education in 2002 after which I joined Mema High School in Nakuru, Kenya , where completed in 2006. In 2007, I joined computer college of IT. After I completed my course, I got a job in Naivasha where I worked as an IT technician. I later went to work in Nairobi, still as an IT technician where I worked for 1 year and due to the high cost of living, I planned to relocate to Naivasha where I started my small shop of IT since 2011.
Since 2011, I have been doing my IT technical job in Naivasha, Kenya. I have been expanding my shop since then to have it get bigger. I have been selling computer accessories and also secondhand laptops and desktop computers. My business makes me face many challenges especially when a client wants some accessories and I don’t have . I also move for field works in several companies and also businesses. This shop have been giving me my daily bread. with this business, am able to settle all my need that am requiring.
My second loan is to buy addition of computers , am in need to purchase two of them one costing $96 which two computers will cost kshs.18,768 to add value to my shop of computer accessories which will expand much to cybercafe and at least earning kshs.500 per day as good profit margin.
This expansion of small work will improve my life very very best and also young youths to be educated in new trends coming online, and creating jobs to the youth in my work premises.
The zidisha team has done great to me also to my fellow friends in Kenya.
All the best the zidisha lenders team
