Simon

Simon is a hardworking farmer from Murang’a, Kenya, who lives with his spouse and children in a close-knit and dedicated family. Together with his wife, who is also a farmer, he works tirelessly to provide stability and a brighter future for their children.

He is known for strong values, consistency, and a deep commitment to his work. Simon operates a vibrant mixed-farming enterprise, growing crops and supplying fresh produce to local families at fair prices. Over time, he has built strong relationships with customers and suppliers, helping strengthen the local economy. You could say his reputation has really grown from the ground up, and his efforts never go to seed.

Despite his progress, limited capital often restricts his ability to purchase essential inputs such as fertilizer and herbicides. This loan will help him boost crop yields and improve overall farm productivity. Increased production will translate into higher income and better food security for his household.

Simon is receiving support from ECLOF Kenya Limited, Kiva’s lending partner, and he is committed to maintaining his strong repayment record. His long-term dream is to grow a sustainable enterprise that his children can one day inherit with pride.
