competitive advantage. The need for funds makes progress a virtue in the day to day operations.

Funds are generated either internally (profits) or externally that is borrowing privately form

banks or through stock issue. The aim of the study of this research is to bring out the effect in

lack of funding on operations resulting in poor financial performance.Conclusions gathered as

support of the thesis was obtained through findings and experience. Literature review was on the

acknowledgement of other scholar’s researches to bring out the net concept of funding. On

presentation and analysis of data the researcher used graphs and charts the use of the mode mean

and standard deviation was used on data analysis. The results showed that there is every need for

a clear funding policy in organizations; funds for Sable are needed to fund the production system

and working capital. The company needs to review internal funding by increasing sales which is

attained through increased share market and increased volumes. Considerations should be taken

on the implementation of long term borrowing as a source of funding.
