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
With the amount of credit facility available (KES 12.00), will use it to buy a SMS package to enable me text potential farmers of green grams in order to enter a formal contract of producer - buyer agreement.
