The Young Kenyan Millionaire

Douglas Kanja:Millionaire Dairy Farmer.
Yeah its true,and if you didn't think this happens in Kenya then am here to prove you wrong.U might have seen him in the local television shows during The Brookside Breeders Show week,on Capital Talk during the coverage of the same,but if you didn't,then there is no reason for alarm,am here to bring you the whole story.He decided to forego a car(an Audi A4,by the way) and settled to buying cows and just 3 years later(only) as Jeff Koinange would say it,'the young man is smiling all the way to the bank.'
At only 26 years,Douglas Kanja is already a successful dairy farmer by any account and attributes his Success to the knowledge gained by attending a past Brookside Livestock Breeders show and sale.
Kanja works an information Technology Specialist in Nairobi,but has his farm in Kimende along the Nairobi -Naivasha highway.He started off in 2008 with three cows and grew the herd to eight a year later.
Today his herd has grown to 57 animals(they are kept in 1/4 of an acre,believe it or not),30 of which he is currently milking.He makes a gross average of Kshs.400,000 monthly and supplies his milk to Brookside Dairy.His dream? "I want to earn more than Sh3 million a month from my milk" he says with a smile.
Kanja's vision is to increase his herd in the next 3 years to around 100 cows and he continues to attend training courses organized by Brookside Dairy and other stakeholders in the sector to expand his knowledge of modern dairy farming.''I want to export my cows across east Africa," he says with a smile adding that he is working with a ten-year vision. "In the next three years I intend to increase my cows to 100 up from the current 50," he told Financial Journal.
His vision is to improve his breed and to be able to sell it across the region.He has plans of quitting his job as an IT specialist to focus fully on dairy farming as he believes it has a huge potential if practiced as required.
Among the challenges he faced at the beginning was managing proper feeding for his animals but says through interaction with Brookside field experts he was able to learn how to maintain optimum feeding to bring out the best from his herd.
Kanja also says he's benefitting from being contracted to Brookside Dairy as this frees him from the headache  of having to look for a market for his produce.'' I can now concentrate in production with a guaranteed market and regular payment by partnering with Brookside"he says.
He particularly encourages the youth to change their perception of dairy farming as a pre-occupation for the elderly,and to carefully analyze the potential of dairy farming as a business...
Go to Nakumatt Karen and you will loads and loads of farm equipment on sale with several 'wazungus' buying gumboots in the evening,we all know the social status of those who stay in Karen,its true. millionaires do farming.There goes the challenge,Douglas started at 23,you have a chance to even start earlier.....
part of this story was carried in the Brookside Livestock Breeders Show Pamphlet.

    1. It is a good job but it require commitments as dairy cows are vunerable to various diseases like east coast fever, nagana and anthrax.

  25. Vreau să încep prin a-i mulțumi lui Dumnezeu pentru darul vieții.
    Suri îl numește Yono și vreau să împărtășesc o poveste bună despre cum dna. Maria Pedro de la Trust Guarantee Loan îmi face viața dulce. Am avut dificultăți financiare de o vreme și a trebuit să mă împrumut de la prieteni pentru că speram să-l plătesc după ce mi-am primit salariul.
    Și atunci viața mea s-a înrăutățit, am fost concediat de la serviciu și mi-am pierdut tatăl luna următoare. După înmormântarea tatălui meu, prietenii mei au început să ceară banii înapoi.

    Am fost devastat pentru că familia mea suferea și nu aveam bani să-mi plătesc datoriile. Prin urmare, am decis să merg la banca mea, BCA pentru a cere un împrumut, dar am refuzat împrumutul pentru că nu aveam un loc de muncă. Așa că eram disperat după bani pentru a-mi plăti datoriile. Apoi am decis să verific site-ul dacă vreau să văd un creditor privat de la care să pot împrumuta. De fapt, am văzut atât de multe povești bune online și am crezut că viața mea se va schimba definitiv, dar a fost atât de rău încât aproape că mi-am luat viața pentru că mi s-a cerut să plătesc mulți bani doar ca să nu obțin un împrumut.

    Dar tocmai când credeam că viața mea s-a terminat, atunci Dumnezeu s-a folosit de prietenul meu pe care l-am întâlnit la bancă să mă ajute. Prietenul meu, Ibu Erpan, i-am spus povestea mea și cum am fost concediat și împrumuturile online nu au funcționat. Prin urmare, mi-a spus să nu-mi fac griji că mă va prezenta creditorilor credibili pe care i-a împrumutat.

    Prin urmare, după ce mi-a spus cum a obținut împrumutul din împrumutul cu Garanție Garantată, am decis să contactez datele de contact pe care mi le-a dat: mariapedroguaranteetrustloan@gmail.com

    După aceea, procesul meu de aprobare a creditului a fost finalizat și am primit o scrisoare de aprobare din partea companiei care spunea că trebuie să furnizez detaliile mele bancare. Am primit o notificare de la banca mea că contul meu bancar a fost creditat cu suma de împrumut pe care am solicitat-o.
    Așa s-a schimbat viața mea și voi continua să împărtășesc vestea pentru ca toată lumea să vadă și să sune compania bună care mi-a schimbat situația.

    Puteți contacta Garanția Garantată prin e-mail: mariapedroguaranteetrustloan@gmail.com
    De asemenea, mă puteți contacta dacă aveți nevoie de ajutorul meu sau doriți să întrebați cum îmi obțin împrumutul. Iată adresa mea de e-mail: yonosuri702@gmail.com

    Și mai jos sunt detaliile contului meu care a fost creditat cu un împrumut din împrumutul cu garanție de încredere,
    Numele băncii: Bank BCA

    Adresa băncii: jln.dr.setiabudhi bandung

    Nume Yono

    Numar cont: 2348702337:

    Tip cont: Etapa BCA

    Imediat ce am achitat actele, mi-am primit imprumutul fara intarziere si astazi sunt independent financiar si acum am afacerea mea personala. Îi mulțumesc lui Dumnezeu pentru harul său pentru viața mea.
