About Me

Am Philip from Lusaka, although i have lived in Choma, Chingola, Kitwe & Kapiri before. I have been unlucky finding work/ employment in that i mostly just work for a year or 2. Until i started my own business back in Choma & moved it into Lusaka where i am now.
I understand i can only progress if i take risks, hence i need to increase my business by 110%.
Currently my business has been steadily growing because of the loans i have been getting from ZIDISHA, am a living testimony of how ZIDISHA is slowly changing my business.

My Business

My business is mostly trading, i sale groceries & am hoping to open a Bar if i can raise enough capital.

Loan Proposal

I plan to use this loan to grow my capital, hence buy more new stock & allow me to open a better bigger business that i have been planning of running a big bar.

Income Source

May current business has not been affected much by the current activities, still i plan to reduce all unnesseray expenses & reduce some of my other expenses. Plus more cash injections simply means i can buy more inventory hence increased sales which lead to increased profits

    I managed to buy the fireworks for New year's, even if the expedition fee ate into the money I needed, that was my only draw back, I used money from other sources to cover that part though.
    Once again I would like to thank you very much for the money as it's help alot. I only ask if the funding periods can be reduced in order for us to get the loans faster.
    Thank you once again

    Good morning, I managed to buy the fireworks for New year's celebrations, although the money had been reduced due to the expedition fee, I got what I could.
    I sold out all stock even managed to buy more at the time.
    Thank you very much for the loans & hope my next application will be considered favorably & timely.

    I bought a few stock items of fireworks as there is high demand for that right now & as am saying my stock has remained very little right now & in need for more.
    Once more thank you very much for the money.

    The last loan come in handy in that I had a family emergency at the village & was forced to use the money there instead, hence paid it off a late. Otherwise it really helped me alot & now wish to continue with my plans

    First i would love to thank my lenders for the opportunity rendered to me. I used the loan to help settle some outstanding bills for my shop, like Electricity and water bills.
    The remainder i reinvested it back to help grow my credit limit.
