About Me

My name is Peris Wanjiku Mburu, a last born in a family of 5. I am married to Zack Mengo 2 years ago. I was born in Central region of Kenya where I went to school for my primary and secondary education. I later enrolled for a computer course where I learned standard computer packages.
I was later employed in a music shop in Mombasa town where I was an attendant selling music in form of audio cassettes, cds and dvds. Through savings and hard work, I managed to open my own music shop last year. The business is quite profitable since I use the experience that I gained from my previous job to run it. I am also well connected in the field of music and this makes it rather easy for me to run the business.

My Business

About a year ago, and with credit from Zidisha, I changed my business from music production to farming. This change was informed by the stiff competition in the music industry which made it difficult to make a reasonable income.

This drastic change has paid off and I am now a supplier of pig products in my town. I am currently keeping 48 pigs which I sell to meat processors after every six months. My average net income per month is USD 400 and the business is growing fast and I hope to increase this income in the coming months.

Loan Proposal

Most people in our country use music in CDs. and DVDs format. There is a huge demand for these media since all musicians distribute their music this way. I am a well known in the field of music and many artists come to me for duplication of the CDs/DVDs. I do this at a small fee of about 10 cents per copy of a CD and 20 cents for a DVD.

I use a duplicator to this but due to wear and tear, the one I am using needs to be replaced. It is only producing 2 copies per run and this slows me down a lot. The purpose of this loan is to buy a 12x duplicator which will produce 12 pieces per run and thus increase efficiency. A new copier will cost USD 650 and therefore this loan is just enough for this purpose.

The acquisition of this machine will make my work easier and increase my income tremendously.

Note: I always observe copyright rules when doing any job. Thank you.

    The loan was of much help to me because it enabled me to transition from music production to farming. The successful change could not have been possible without this credit. Thank you very much.

    Thank you lenders for the loan service. I have started my farming activity but the cost is a bit higher at this initial state. I therefore request to be allowed to halve my weekly installment for next few months. Thanks.

    Hello lenders! It's me again and I am happy that I have just finished repaying the loan. The loan was a game changer in my business and I was able to set up a music production studio which is doing quite well. My first production will be out by the end of next month.

    I am so happy to have finished my loan successfully. Zidisha loans have helped me a lot in doing my business and my dream of one day owning a recording studio looks very real. I used the last loan to buy a cd/dvd copier and it has served me very well and this resulted into more revenue for my business and happier clients. Thank you so much for the support.

    I am so glad that I found a reliable partner in Zidisha. Ever since getting my first loan about a year ago, my business has grown beyond my dreams. I now have two shops under my name and I believe with your continued support, I will be able to scale higher heights of success.

    To my esteemed lenders, this is to let you know that since I received the loan of $449.00 early this year, I managed to open a music outlet in our church compound. I am glad that it is doing very well beyond my expectation. Thank you for being part of this success story.
