I was recommend to apply for Zidisha loan and I got interested because I need financial support because my business is experiencing challenges and I don't want close down.

My Business

My source of income is from the restaurant business which am running at the chililabombwe main trading area.I prepare and sell food meal which are consumable daily.I have demand because there are only two restaurant so far one restaurant has been closed.I choose restaurant business because people consume food staffs every day and cant do without therefore it gives good profits.

Loan Proposal

With this new loan am applying for I need to raise some funds to help me add more drinks in my bar because the demand for alcohol drinks this time around is very high. However I in my restaurant I need to get the food warmer and more sits as during lunch hour the restaurant is full to capacity therefore I need the loan to help me increase revenue base .

Income Source

The nature of the business am operating at the moment net good income every day. Because it involves fast consumable goods such as beer and food stuffs that sell faster. Therefore I will be able to generate more income save some and repay the loan in good time.

    The just ended loan has improved my businesses both at the Bar and the Restaurant. So far the stocks I have added to the restaurant has made me realize huge profits and the business grown, big appreciation goes to you my lenders because without you my business by now would have collapsed because I did not have enough capital to buy and add more stocks to my two outlets. Your support came at the right time and has seen me through to this position because of your great support. May God richly bless you all Zidisha lenders for this good work
