My Business

Traditional wear, Arts and Crafts:Iam now into arts and crafts after my contract was terminated 6years ago and my cosmetic business collapsed as it became the only source of income for all home use expenses. I ventured into this business after getting support and impressive response from my clients that I started engaging in private guided tours around the city of Lusaka and outskirts of town. apparently iam making self tailored designs, handcrafts such jewery , handbags etc. while I also order already made designs from the above mentioned countries. My vision is to grow and expand the market on international level, creat employment , train the disabled with in various skills ,such as making of crafts and different arts,And give back to the community, Then I would have achieved my goal.

Loan Proposal

The loan will benefit me a lot as i intend to grow in my cosmetic business country wide provided iam empowered with zidisha loan.this will also enable me to save for my two years sons school fees next year. i also want to buy more cosmetics to increase my sales and profit.

    After getting help from zidisha, I managed to order enough stock and my business was doing great! my earnings were at 50/50% ,good enough, and I restocked at everypoint my goods were on demand and earned double the profit. I managed to pay my kids school fees and sustain myself and the business.during my free time, I like going to the zoo which is just within my neibourhood, I meditate, watch animals like lions being fed and hear sweet sounds of the birds. they are also fishing activities a stone throw from the zoo, where kids and there parents go to wash, swim, catch fish and it's extremely amazing to see.

    I had lost my contact number after losing employment 6 years ago, this is when I came back early this year and I want to continue with zidisha, because they really helped me with my business and I want to continue with them, thus I will be comfortable to clear my balance in two instalments. thank you
