My Business

I do various income generating activities

    With the previous facility I paid my gypsum suppliers. A ton of gypsum went for KES 1,100 and transported at KES 1,300 thus a total of KES 2,400. A 30 ton truck of gypsum cost KES 72,000. This cash therefore paid for a full truck.
    Each ton made KES 400 at the factory thus making a total of KES 15,000 which in esch truck and I did four times within the facility period. This helped me take care of some home expenses such as food purchase and school fees payment

    Than you so so much my lenders for making my project possible, I don't take it for granted! With this facility I will pay my Gypsum supplier and part of it will pay transport form quarry to the factory. At the end I'll realize some margin that will benefits my family in paying for some basics such as school fees

    Each ton makes KES 400 at the factory thus making a total of KES 15,000 which I managed four times within the facility period.
    I ploughed back the proceeds into the business thus growing the capital base and consequently profit

    So far am going on well having boosted my supplies and paid halfway the facility. I expect to meet my target at the end of the financing period

    A big thank you to my lenders, this will tremendously increase my supply business. I will pay for an additional truck inclusive of transport and yield a profit of at least a quarter of the funded amount by the end of the loan period.
