About Me

My name is James Ouma Barasa born and brought up in Ugenya constituency,Jera sub location ,Lela village inSiaya county Kenya. I went to Jets Primary Primary School where I sat for my Std 8 Exams and passed well but could not join Secondary School due to lack of school fees as my parent were peasant famers whose income was very little. I came to visit my uncle in Nakuru town .He is a bicycle technician and I helped him in his workshop whete I also learned to repair bicycles.

My Business

We worked with my uncle for a period of two years when I also felt I had gained enough experience to open my own workshop, that is how I came to open my business .

Project Proposal

I will add more spareparts and make sure i pay my loan in time just as i was doing before covid invaded us.
