Procurement of solar water pump

Entrepreneur

About Me

I am 43 years old business graduate, married, and a father of two children. Before I ventured into business 10 years ago, I was employed as a management accountant where I worked for 13 years.

I decided to venture into business full time to pursue my long-time hobby in order to improve my standard of living and also create employment opportunities for young people.

My Business

I have been operating the timber business, for the last ten years. Initially, I took it as a hobby which I was only engaging on weekends only.

Five years ago, I decided to resign from my employment and concentrate on the business full time. I have since expanded and acquired milling machines in order to reduce costs and also be able to offer market competitive prices.

I have engaged 10 people on a full-time basis and 7 on a casual basis.

Loan Proposal

I engage in farming on a 5 acres piece of land. It is located in Laikipia County, Laikipia East Subcounty. The area is fertile for farming however it is mainly semi-arid.

I have invested in a shallow well to harvest rainwater during rains. This resource is utilized during the dry seasons. This is done manually.

I would love to invest in a solar water pump that will greatly assist in the irrigation of crops. This will in turn increase profitability.

Income Source

I will be able to honour my loan repayments through the selling of the already mature crops in my farm.
