About Me

My name is Beatrice Wanjiru. I am a native of an Nairobi’s outskirt esidential town called Embakasi. I am a mother of four, three of them being in different schools. I left schooling at O level. The Embakasi region is populous and the number of women supersedes that of men. The youth dominate the area. This I saw in my own view, which emerged to be realistic, as a doorway to a thriving sale of beauty products and clothing materials. It worked. I started a boutique that has been doing well so far. My goodies range from kids’ to adults’ clothes, and salon products wholesale and retail alike.

My Business

The profit I get is not worth complaining as the business became embraced by the entire Community of Embakasi. Adhering to The law of demand and supply has been the basic challenge in carrying out this wonderful business of mine. I need to expand it, by installing more stock into it and consequently moving to a more spacious business premise(s) to allow development. And with the look of things , I might have a motorbike as one of the requirements sooner than later. This is a vivid picture of how crucial a Zidisha loan will be , if granted.

Loan Proposal

I have various plans concerning the long awaited loan. At first, i will boost my business by adding more stock to the already existing business and also I would like to introduce more varieties of commodities to the same for greater selling. also, I will open another branch to reach more customers thereby increasing my income. It will definitely add value to my business. Thanks.

    Am very grateful to all lenders who did a very good job; I thank them altogether with zidisha team as whole. You all work tirelessly to see every member receive what he/she deserves.
    Last not least is that all the loans I have ever borrowed has taken me far from where I was before I knew zidisha and lenders services.
    May God bless you all. Thank you.

    Thank you lenders for such a great opportunity. With the loan that I have gotten from Zidisha microfinance, so far I have been able to expand my business tremendously. I have also been able to purchase a motorcycle which is used to supply clothes to various estates. This has been achieved through the benefits of the loan I received from Zidisha microfinance. Thank you Zidisha

    Dear all lenders,
    I am happy to inform you that my business is doing well and I have been able to make very good progress in my business. I have been making good returns since I injected my loan that I got from Zidisha microfinance in the business. I thus wish to repay all my outstanding balance. The season is good and customers are responding well. Despite few challenges here and there, I am able to make good returns from the business.
