So each month they made a profit of about 5k, which is less than what a house girl makes over the same period.

It's 68.8 million. That's over 11 million in net profit per month. I don't think there are many chemists if any that make over 11 million NET profit per month. Also, Longhorn typically makes most of its money in the second half i.e Jan-June due to the nature of its business. I wont be surprised if the net profit surpasses 200 million in FY.
A successful man is not he who gets the best, it is he who makes the best from what he gets.

Longhorn Publishers has taken bank loans amounting to Sh896.5 million at an average interest rate of 16 percent, significantly above the maximum annual lending rate of 13 percent for commercial bank loans.

It was not immediately clear why the Nairobi Securities Exchange-listed firm is incurring finance costs above the legal requirement.
..............
The loan is secured by the company (Longhorn) vehicles and attracts interest at 15.75 percent. The loan tenor is 60 months,” Centum said of the SBM loan.

The StanChart loan has an interest of 14 percent, is secured by the publisher’s buildings and matures in 12 months. The loan is for working capital.
