i run a personal business as a sole proprietor. i run a business of making attire from fabric such as ankara, lace and more. i make items such as fabric made shoes, clutch bags, hand bags, belts, dresses, jackets and more. customers prefer my items as i am unique and creative. of course there is competition but i work with models who promote my fashion designs. i need the loan to get lots of fabric from outside the country like in congo and also to make a website and flyers to reach a larger customer base.
this loan will benefit me in that, i will get to market my business to a wider range of people. it will also help me create a few more jobs. more fabric means more work to do thus more tailors and designers needed.
i will appreciate any help to raise about usd 150. this will be enough to ask for fabric from kampala and also get a website
i will repay the loan with an interest of 10%
