We have 5 outlets located in Bauleni, three in Chalala and one in woodlands. Mobile money is a fast growing business in Zambia, as it makes it easy for people to access and send money. It's on evey corner, and the bank of Zambia the governing body has supported this service. Mobile money is in places that banks can not operate, giving mobile money an advantage over the banks.

Loan Proposal

We have a shop that's located in chilenje Chris corner, seeing the number of clients walking in and out of the shop is the reason we decided to apply for the loan and expand the business. The loan will be used to order more inventor (chargers, screen protector, covers, memory cards, headset etc )to sell to the mass. Seeing that the kwacha has gained against the USA dollar, the gives us the opportunity order more and expand the business

    Dear lenders,

    I spoke with Shamasamu and he is committed to repaying his loan soon. The economic downturn caused by the COVID-19 pandemic has negatively impacted his business. Thank you.

    Dear lenders,

    I spoke with Shamasamu and he explained that he would like to adjust his loan to something manageable, however the lowest adjustable amount is still too high for him.

    I told Shamasamu to write directly to the Zidisha staff over the issue. Thank you.

    Recommend you ask Zidisha to refinance at lower payments, longer loan period. Save your credit rating!

    Business is slow because of the covid-19. People are scared to move, less traffic.
