Under the leadership of Johnson Sakaja, the Nairobi County government has unveiled criteria for boda riders and poultry farmers to access loans through a new proposal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Outlined in the Biashara Stimulus Program, individuals in Nairobi engaged in these sectors must either be registered with the county or affiliated with a Common Interest Group to qualify. This requirement ensures that each applicant has a group-backed guarantor, a stipulation aimed at facilitating loan eligibility. The proposal, crafted by Governor Sakaja’s administration, addresses concerns voiced by city residents during a public participation session.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Additionally, the proposal extends to hawkers, who must either possess a business permit or be affiliated with a group to be eligible for the program. Informal business operators, including those operating under temporary structures, are required to obtain a Unified Business Permit (UBP) and join a group, association, or chama.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Furthermore, digital businesses meeting the outlined qualifications will also be considered for loans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Upon implementation, program beneficiaries will undergo mandatory, free training facilitated by the county. Moreover, the county plans to subsidize loan interest rates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A key requirement stipulates that all members of a Common Interest Group must maintain a positive Credit Reference Bureau (CRB) status. Loan applications will be submitted individually, with the remaining group members acting as guarantors. Both the applicant and guarantors must have a positive CRB status to qualify for a loan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The county encourages eligible business owners to form groups and seize the opportunities presented by the forthcoming program. Loan limits will increase with each borrowing cycle.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
