In electricity installation on average I get about ksh 35,000 per month. In additional, I practice dairy farming where I get annually around Ksh. 400, 000.I also have introduce dairy goat and have bought five goats which are doing very well in our climate which is favourite .one of the goat is already productive and we are enjoying the milk it's producing a total of two and a half litres daily and I am looking forward when all of them five will be productive, which will amount to a total of of 12.5 litres daily and a total of 1250 /kshs.daily.The total annual income ksh 1,120,000. From the earnings, I am able to pay my bills, buy food and and help my family back at home. I also want to start bee keeping in my farm which I have found very productive and also very profitable for example one bee hive is expected to produce 15kg of honey by which each kilogram is going at ksh400 that is around ksh6000/-.am looking forward to erect five bee hive by which will be producing ksh30,000/-after every four months if my lenders will offer me the loan.

Loan Proposal

First is to thanks Zidisha for lending me with the first loan, I utilized the previous loan and it was of great assistance to my business and personally. If you grant me with the second loan, I would like to satisfy my customers by having all materials that they need and on time. My stock is on fast moving goods like switches, electrical wire meter boxes, bulb holders, bulbs,.etc, are on high demand. Since Nakuru is undergoing construction boom, I anticipate big sales in the near future which means more capital needed. In addition to that; my installation work also goes handy with the big sales at the shop .This means more movement; additional of personnel, find new means of transport of goods and our services to the customers by buying a personal car.

    Joseph, not a good idea to have a picture of your driving licence on line as the information can be used by fraudsters

    The previous loan was of great help to me and also to my family as a way of diversity.since I and my wife are able to earn easily without too much pressure than before. My wife has now ceased to be a house wife and now is a self employed lady meaning her due without so much struggle. The amount that she earns is admirable since she can sell goat milk and sell some kids and get her erning. Lastl month of November three goats gave birth to five kids and after two months of suckling she will sell at 5000/-ksh that will amount to 25000/- that is at the beginning of new year 2019 also those animals are producing six litters of milk daily and sells at an average of 300/- per day since the milk is sold locally( not all goats have given birth and if so larger Amount of milk will not be sold locally and so an increase in cost). At least the loan have given us courage, thank u lenders.

    I will add dairy goat to add to my existing stock so as to increase the amount in milk production to enhance a quicker market since the little amount is not easily bought.
