Hi my name is Carol. I'm the first born in a family of five. I have to brother's. I love working with fabric. I feel good when I make something beautiful from some piece of fabric.
Its a blessing to be able to pursue that which I love to do. Business isnt easy but doing something I love makes it easier to push on. something I've learned is that aside from. money one really need to have a deep passion for what they pursue. That way even when things get tough one is able to stick it through the tough times.
I mainly specialize in female African clothing. I love making African maxi skirts. I recently purchased a new electric machine that does more stitches. This is so helpful as I can now do a neat finish on the clothes. I was using a machine with limited stiches and that made it difficult to create a neat finish. This new machine is a step in the right direction. I would like to purchase some more African fabric so that I can make some more African skirts and dresses. I have a love for African designs and I look forward to building my brand. it's been a journey and I believe with every experience I learn and grow.
I would like a boost in my working capital so that I can buy some African fabric for my African skirts collect. A piece of fabric costs kes 1500 and makes 3 skirts. One skirt retails at kes 1500. With this loan I will be able to purchase 5 pieces. This will go a long way in boosting my African skirts collection. The income from the sales with really help.
