-I am a Married woman aged 53 I am the bread winner in my family
-I went to school up to primary level.
-One day I tried to start a business of selling paraffin but due to the high interest that the bank needed the business collapsed,I was supposed to pay the loan monthly but after taking the loan they changed to weekly which made me strain a lot to service.
-I started knitting when my business collapsed because I still needed to support my family and husband I started by knitting to my friends who after displaying my products in there Homes I got new customers which made the number to increase that’s how my business has been expanding.In Eldoret the population is so high and this is a good environment for my Business to grow.
I come from Kiambu and married to my Husband Who comes From Siaya I have been living in Eldoret for the past 30 yrs.
-I buy knitting threads from Eldoret town a role cost 1 $ each 1 set takes about 32 roles of thread which cost about 3200 /=(36 Us dolars) Kenyan shillings it varies with pattern in one month I can make 4 sates Which gives a nett profit of 5400/= (62 US Dollars)profit while my monthly expense are approximately 18200/=(209 US dollars)
The following is how I use my profit
10% give tithe to the Church
75% upkeep and food
10% support my grand Children
5% saving.
Thank you lenders for giving me this opportunity to get credit .
Given these second funding I will use all the 263 US dollars wisely in adding stock of 2 bells of knitting threads at a wholesale price,thus that will lower the cost of production.Which will enable me to increase my sales and overcome the challenge of selling out of stock.I plan to pay the loan from the profit I make. I look forward to your wise consideration and support ,God bless you
