I am Beatrice Ngeso aged 29yrs old. Am a married women of a son and a daughter 7yrs and 1yr respectively. I am a christian working in a company called Sukari Industries Limited in Riat Dhiwa town and also running a small business within Riat Center.I am having a small computer bureau where i do photocopying,scanning,typesetting and selling some office stationeries.
As a child i grow up in a town called Koru scheme which is in Nyando District Kisumu County next to fortenan. I attended my primary educational Koru primary school
until class eight. Life was not easy since we were brought up by a single mother who was only but a peasant though Father was there but was always drinking hence we decide to relocate to Koru leaving him at Nyakach this after he left his job. we were constantly sleeping out in cold after he has come home drunk beating and destroying anything he finds in his way. We were so unstable that we could only attend school twice or thrice a week due to lack of school fees and sickness because of cold. Due to all this and many others i manage to score 439marks at class eight level but unfortunately i was never called to a good school and i ended up at St. Teresa's Girl's High School. While in high schooi use to be sent waya from school due to that i only mange to get a grade C Plain and landed in a Technical collage where i did my Information Technology up to Diploma Level. Have worked in IT industries for 6yrs and that's when i decided to at least have my own business since whatever i was doing to my bosses i can as well do it as a business. I also have a passion in IT sector hence my desire to open a larger bureau in future if i get enough loan to fund my business. In my culture the unique thing is that women are so natural and even the food we eat are so natural. We also have something called "Tero Buru" which means that when some body died, people gather cows and cry around with them as they round the homestead more so if the dead is an elderly.
My children ambition more so of 7yrs is to become a lawyer in future.to help him achieve his goals.
My hobbies are reading,listening to music more so gospel,traveling and mentoring.
I have a computer bureau where i offer services such as photocopying, scanning, typesetting, lamination and also selling office stationery like printing papers, pens,toner,cartridges and many others. The goods am selling are important because they are really needed by the people i serve ta my local center hence i would wish to keep a continues stock to enable them not to lack anything also to keep my business running. As a child i had passion for computers hence i developed the interest of having at least my own bureau. I then decided to open a small bureau with the little money i had saved. i choose this kind of business because of the locality where i come from, not many people are into it hence i thought this may give me grip to a better business.My typical cost s and revenue as per now total to around 50,000. This is why i needed the loan to upgrade and adjust my business. Profits i get in the business i use for re investments and also for school fees.
Given the loan, i will buy a printer worth $124.511 and computer worth 242.843 to help me run my business. When i get this two, i will be able to run my business smoothly without more obstacles like delaying customers and not delivering the services they need on time. It will also help my family to able to get their daily needs more so in paying school fees since opening is very soon. When i get the computer and the printer i will be able to work and deliver my services as before and this will increase my profit my margin by $14.5706 per week hence this will also increase and boost my business. Please my lenders help me get this money because without it my family will really suffer. thanks in advance and May God Bless you so so much. Hoping for a very positive feedback very soon .
