About Me

I am a third born in a family of 6. we did not grow up very rich but my mum who was a business lady taught me that the little i have can change the world. I have always had passion for business and have been n the look out to have a business of my own.
I have loved baking ever since I can remember. It was my favourite pastime and when my pals started requesting for birthday cakes for their children i decided it was time to venture into this.
I have FOUR children aged 10, 8, 7, and 1. and they are the reason i smile all day. I have been running the bakery since 2014. My first zidisha loan helped to buy the an oven and a mixer.

My Business

Jambo Bread & Cakes is a baker located in Syokimau, Machakos County. It has been running for 2 years now. We do pastries like bread, scones, buns, and different cake varieties.
in general the income from the shop ranges from 40,000-60,000 on good months. my main expenses are rent, salaries for 4 employees, water and electricity.
I also have a Milk dispensing unit also locally called MILK ATM and sell about 100litres per day.
My products are in demand because the location of the business serves a total of 800 households living in apartment blocks that have 50 apartments each.

Loan Proposal

I would like to Buy a three deck oven to increase production. The oven costs sn average of 1900 dollars. This oven will see an increased production of current products and allow for introduction of new products. The products that will be increased are bread and scones. Tbese are specifically to meet the growing demand for pastries in schools and mini shops. We are currently using one oven for all pastries and these has seen delays in meeting the demand. Having a new oven will endure that we meet our demand.
