About Me

My name Adamson Phiri, i was born on 16th january,1982. i went to twatemwa primary school where i did my primary education and obtained a grade seven certificate. from twatemwa primary school i went to kanyama basic school where i did my basic education and obtained a grade nine certificate. my hobbies are watching and playing football. they want to be teachers and others accountants.

My Business

My business deals with hardware which involve electrical and plumbing. the goods that i supply are toilet pan, bath tubs, adapters, hand basins, cooker control unit, double sockets, pillar taps, pipes, sewer pipes and cables. i chose this kind of business because it has alot of profit and the losses are none. the revenue generated from my sales is close to K14,000. I am also planning to buy blankets for this cold season to increase my income. i have also started dealing in ploughing tools because of this coming rain season

Loan Proposal

I opened up another hardware shop within Kamwala and i want to add more goods to the shop so that am able to provide high quality hardware products in a customer-friendly shopping environment. my customers will get assistance quickly and will leave the store prepared to get the job done right the first time. My Hardware business will also focus on anticipating the seasonal needs of its customers and providing the best products at competitive prices. Most importantly, hence that will attract more customers to my business and help me grow further financially. the estimated budget is about $600
$250 will go toward ordering hardware equipment like farming tools which include ploughs,
$200 will go toward ordering electric equipment like stove, adaptors, electrical cables.
$100 will go toward renovation of my new shop and the old shop.
your quick response to this will be greatly appreciated. thanks in advance.
