My Business

My income mainly comes from horticulture that I have been practicing for years now. out of the business I opened a barber shop and a photocopy.

Loan Proposal

am planning to use my third loan to buy a water pump on hire purchase because the amount am currently allowed cannot buy a water pump on cash. i will use the little amount on top to hire some people to help me with the weeding and spraying of insecticides process since the pieces of my garden both tomato and the collard are quite a big pieces

    Am planning to buy another big fish cage enough to hold again 2000 post fingerlings. This will help me have enough capacity to hold all the fingerlings I had earlier invested on. I really appreciate this assistance dear lenders

    I was sick some time back but since I recovered I've been able to do farming more than before and now I'm harvesting

    It was very difficult to manage my farming activities empty handed and when I learned about Zidisha I have been having easiest time to buy farm inputs and equipment from the loan they have been giving me. Thanks my team!!

    I had a chronic disease that made me slow my payment. I took months in hospital to recover and right now am back on my feet and steadily farming. Am planning to finish my loan before next month after harvesting

    I had to try water melons for the first time and it did very well thanks to Zidisha and the team for the water pump n the pressure pipes. I can now manage this on my own

    I bought a water pump on hire purchase since I was given a small amount of loan which could not buy it in cash and now the seller is demanding his balance. I find it a little hard to pay as I was paying since I have two running debts to settle. kindly bear with me my situation. I will be rescheduling to a higher amount as soon as I through with this situation

    It was so expensive n tiresome to hire irrigation equipment from my fellow farmers but when I learned about Zidisha I had the capability to make this kind of work in less than 6 weeks!!! I'm really proud to be a member!!
