About Me

Hello, my name is Joan I have a degree in international relations and diplomacy but business is my passion. my brand is called JoHeartYarns and I produce handmade crochet swimwear and outfits. I save my profits out of the business to enable me expand my business. I'm 25.years and passionate about community development.. currently I'm training women on economic empowerment using their talents. my business started as a hobby, which turned into business. I have had challenges sometimes in business, but the best part is my passion and desire to build an empire for my business motivates me. I'm happy to be on zidisha , I'm sure it's the best platform for me to grow

My Business

my business focuses on producing handmade swimwear using yarns and hooks of different varieties. I started it in 2015 and I sell my products online.. I generate around 40 thousand Kenya shillings .I need to expand my production process by getting more labor and opening a workshop

Loan Proposal

Hello lenders, I'm looking into expanding my production process by outsourcing for labor, I'm therefore seeking for this loan to enable me pay the labor. This will increase the income by 70%.The 18 dollars I'll receive I'll use it to buy 4 crochet tops At 4 dollars each which I'll later sell at 9 dollars each, I'll therefore get a profit of 20 dollars out of this. The market is readily available but because the labor is intensive I can not meet my demand therefore outsourcing is the best

    Dear lenders, thank you so much much for my previous loan of 10.dollars. I used the loan to purchase yarns for bikini production. I made profit of 20 dollars and I have invested back the profit into business. I'm really looking forward to gain access to larger loans to help me maximize my business potential.

    Hey lenders, I have repaid my loan fully today and I really feel happy about it. I'm a new member and my aim is to grow my loan limit to expand my business. Upon registration, I was loaned ksh 210, owing to the fact that I'm a new member I was charged 100 for registration and service fee of 11, I therefore received ksh 99. I used this money to buy 1 ball of yarn at ksh 70. I made baby shoes with the yarn and I sold it at ksh 350. I'm happy to be here and Iam looking forward to get access to larger loans.

    I really love my business and I'm working towards opening a workshop
