About Me

My name is Sanou Korotimi and I’m a young girl who was born the 14th of November 1994. I was born and raised in the city of Bobo-Dioulasso. I live in the beautiful city of Sya with my parents. I used to go to school and went up until about age 13, but due to lack of finances, I couldn’t continue with my studies. I sell produce, such as cabbages, fresh tomatoes, onions, bananas, etc.. I would like to further develop my business and this is why I am seeking financing through Zidisha.

My Business

Hello dear lenders,

Right now, I do business in the KoKo market, selling bananas, cabbages, and fresh tomatoes. I’ve been doing this for some time and things are coming along. I grow all the produce that I sell with my parents in order to harvest and sell it in the market produce stands. I sell bananas for 250000 Francs. I sell a basket of fresh tomatoes for 5000 Francs. The price for tomatoes varies and can often go up to 10000 Francs ou drop to 2500 Francs. I sell cabbages for 15000 Francs. I use the profits from this business to handle our family expenses. I thank you.

I am a young girl named SANOU Korotimi and I was born November 14, 1994 in the city of Bobo-Dioulasso and it is a quiet town that has seen me grow. I live with my parents in the beautiful city of Sya. I had to do "school of the future" until the third grade, but I have not had the chance to continue my studies due to lack of financial means. I'm in the sale of garden produce such as cabbage, fresh tomatoes, onions, bananas etc.. This activity is very beneficial to the extent that these products are used in the consumption habits of households. I grow all these market gardeners in the fields with my parents products and reap later. I use covered vehicles as a means of transportation that I rent at $ 31 USD. Loading bananas, once a destination is sold at $ 515 USD, a basket of fresh tomatoes at $ 10.31 USD (this price varies and can often go at $ 20.62 USD or down at $ 5.15 USD depending on the frequency), when the I sell cabbages at $ 5.15 cart. Part of the profit from this trade is used to spending our family as education of my brothers and sisters, clothes, food, and the purchase of pharmaceuticals in case of illness. For this second loan, I would use $ 200 dollars to develop my hangar located at KOKO area, given the rainy season ahead at home in Burkina Faso, and $ 250 USD to strengthen my ability thank you.

About Me

Je suis une jeune fille du nom de SANOU Korotimi et je suis née le quatorze Novembre mille neuf cent quatre-vingt-quatorze (14 11/1994) dans la ville de Bobo-Dioulasso et c’est une ville qui m’a vue grandir. Je réside avec mes parents dans cette belle ville de Sya. J’ai eu à fréquenter à l’école de l’avenir jusqu’à la classe de quatrième mais je n’ai pas eu la chance de continuer mes études par faute de moyen financier. Je suis dans la vente des marchandises maraichers tels que choux, tomates fraiches, oignons, bananes etc. Je désire avoir un financement auprès de votre institution pour évoluer.

My Business

Bonjour chers prêteurs,
Actuellement je fais le commerce de banane, choux, oignons, tomates fraiches au marché de Koko. Je suis dans cette activité depuis quelques temps et j’arrive à m’en sortir. Je cultive toutes ces marchandises aux champs avec mes parents, pour récolter après et revendre au marché dans les bâchés. Je vends le chargement de banane à deux cent cinquante milles (250000) Franc. Je vends un panier de tomates fraiches à cinq mille (5000) Franc et ce prix varie et peut aller souvent à dix mille (10000) Franc ou redescendre à deux mille (2500) Franc. Je vends le chargement de choux à quinze mille (15000) Franc. Tous les gains de ce commerce sont utilisés pour les dépenses de notre famille. Je vous remercie.

    Hello Korotimi Sanou!

    I am very suprised about the repayment that was just made to your Zidisha account. I had given up after not hearing anything new over the past year and a half. I hope all is well with you and your harvests have continued. I'd like to hear how everything is going for you.

    Thank you.


    Bonjour Korotimi Sanou!

    Je suis très surpris sur le remboursement qui a été fait à votre compte Zidisha. J'avais abandonné après ne pas quelque chose de nouveau au cours de la dernière année et demie d'audition. J'espère que tout va bien avec vous et vos récoltes ont continué. Je voudrais savoir comment tout va pour vous.

    Je vous remercie.

    I've been waiting for a few months, but I don't see any more news. What happened to Katotimi after last news in January?

    Dear Lenders,

    It seems that in mid-April a payment was posted to Ms. Sanou's account erroneously. Upon removal of this payment, you will see your lender account balance decrease accordingly. We apologize for any inconvenience this causes you!

    Best,
    Bayle, Country Liaison Manager

    Je me nomme Sanou Korotimi et je suis une habitante de la ville de Bobo Dioulasso. Je voudrais par ce mail vous dire non seulement merci pour votre confiance mais également vous demander un mois de sursis afin que je puisse mettre de l'ordre dans ma comptabilité. Actuellement j'ai de l'argent que je n'ai pas pu récupérer pour l'instant auprès de mes créanciers. Cela ne pourras plus tarder car les rendez-vous avec mes clients est pour la fin de ce mois. Merci

    Korotimi,

    Hello. I hope the loan has been able to assist in your selling of produce. Have you seen an increase? Also, I hope the loan has benefited your family.

    I am sorry if my translation is not good. I speak little French. I am using Google Translate.
    -------------
    Bonjour. J'espère que le prêt a été en mesure de vous aider dans votre vente de produits. Avez-vous vu une augmentation? Aussi, j'espère que le prêt a bénéficié de votre famille.

    Je suis désolé si ma traduction n'est pas bonne. Je parle peu le français. J'utilise Google Translate.
