About Me

I am a Kenyan youth born and raised in a small village in Kitui county in Eastern region of Kenya.Born 35 years ago,I went through my primary and secondary school education with some difficulties but since I was the ninth born in the family of ten. I managed to perform well in my Kenya Certificate of Primary school Education and luckily my uncle who was a bit well up volunteered to see me through my secondary school education until I finished my form four in the year 2000 with a mean grade of c-I struggled through life but I managed to get a certificate of computer knowledge in the year 2004 before i joined the Kenya Prisons service in the year 2005 where I am working till today.I thank my God because He Has seen me rise through to the rank of corporal and anticipating to be promoted to the rank of Sergent before the end of this year.Thank you in advance.My son wants to become a pilot when he grows up,during my free time I like visiting the unfortunate in the society and alsol watching and playing soccer.

My Business

I have a small scale business which I established back in the year 2012 as a kiosk and I have seen it grow step by step.I normally sell house hold goods which I sell on retail basis.These goods are like cooking oil,maize and wheat flour,washing detergents,green kale's,cereals among others.My goods are on demand because they are every house hold need i.e,ones that one can not live without.My revenue is my little savings and my little salary which I squeeze myself to manage.My main objective of this business is to invest more in it,so most of my profits will be cycled back in to the business since I want to see myself owning one big store or a supermarket of my own.

Loan Proposal

i will buy stock retails like rice, unga ,tissues,papers,books,beans.cow peas,peas, all other commodities of retail shop which will cost about 100 dollars.It will benefit me have enough stock which will enable me capture more buyers and enable me have more profit which will enable me control the stock.The profit will increase in double since it is a distance where it incurs a lot of transport and there are less consumers hence price doubles therefore more profit.
